Selma To Montgomery National Historic Trail

Established by Congress in 1996, the Selma to Montgomery National Historic Trail commemorates the people, events, and route of the 1965 Voting Rights March in Alabama. Led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Black and White non-violent supporters fought for the right to vote in Central Alabama. Today, you can connect with this history and trace the events of these marches along the 54-mile trail.

During the 50th Anniversary Walking Classroom event participants marched nearly 54-miles from Selma to Montgomery.
