About this app

E-WALK

E-walk allows you to find your next outdoor activity, plan it, and record it. E-walk is the perfect companion for outdoors activities (such as hiking, trekking, biking, fishing, hunting, etc...) and for traveling abroad, because you can fully use it offline.

Lost in a forest? E-walk brings you back to your car. Forgot about where was this lovely boutique you noticed last year in Venice? E-walk refreshes your memory!

Ratings and reviews

Fantastic app! Has EVERY trail, both marked and unmarked, in my area. Works flawlessly. I am a Firefighter and EMT in a rural area and will be recommending this app as our goto app for department search and rescue operations since it has so much detail. My only complaint is that the topo map elevations are metric and no way to change to imperial units

Great app. I use it to track casual treks and find it great for keeping me on the right track and getting me back home safe! Excellent support too. My query was answered within minutes and the issue fixed shortly after!

Useless in rural area & totally unintuitive. The only maps available where there's no signal just show streets, not footpaths. A total absence of instructions means that there's no way to set up your own route before you leave home. It seldom recognises the location that you type in & won't put markers on the map where you want them. A waste of memory space on my phone & being deleted very shortly.

What's new

This update brings all IGN maps back (including SCAN maps) & fixes a bug preventing tracking to start on some devices.
