About this app

OnlyTrails is your companion for discovering, planning, and navigating hiking trails — built to keep working when you leave cell coverage behind.

DISCOVER
• Browse trails near you, sorted by distance, difficulty, or length
• See real route thumbnails, elevation gain, and estimated time at a glance
• Read a colour-coded steepness profile so you know exactly where the climbs are

PLAN YOUR ROUTE
• Draw your own route on the map, tap by tap
• Snap to real trails and paths, double-back, or close the loop automatically
• Fork any existing trail and edit it into your own plan
• Share a route with friends via a link

NAVIGATE WITH CONFIDENCE
• Turn-by-turn trail guidance with an off-route alert
• Offline vector maps — download a region and navigate with no signal
• Battery-aware navigation that adapts to keep you on the map longer
• Compass with heading-up or north-up, plus a live elevation profile
• Free Walk mode to record an unplanned hike

COMMUNITY
• Drop and confirm trail markings — forks, hazards, water, and more
• See conditions and notes left by other hikers
• Trailhead weather so you can time your hike

OnlyTrails works on the trail, not just at the trailhead. Download your map, plan your route, and go.

What’s new
