About this app

The VHtrails app assists you in getting directions to the trails as well as navigating on the trail. The trails are well maintained and marked but in case you get lost or find yourself in a distress situation, the app may serve as a helpful guide.

Once the app is installed, all necessary data is stored on your smartphone for offline use and there will be no need for internet or cell connection once you are in the field. No specific setting or configuration is required.

The Home Screen shows all trail systems that are available. Tap the image for more details. From the Details Screen you can either get driving directions to the trail or open the respective trails map.

The Trails Map shows the maintained trails with the main trails (or loop) highlighted. A tap on the location button will move the map center to your current location (on the trail).

A drawer menu at the Home Screen provides additional functions such as a link to Vinalhaven Land Trust News.

Ratings and reviews

Just spent a week on Vinalhaven, and this app was incredibly helpful / well done. Trail maps were accurate and clear, and directions to trail parking lots worked perfectly. Strongly recommend.

Great job mapping and programming! We stay on Vinalhaven every year and this is a great and useful tool to explore!

Very clean and functional app. I like it a lot! 😀

What's new

This version 1.3.3 contains minor updates. Since cellular service on Vinalhaven has significantly improved during the past years, you may now install the app and update the offline database while on cellular network (Previously, WiFi was required).
Other updates are related to software updates by Android's software environment.
