About this app

Hiking Trail HK is a Hong Kong hiking mobile app.

The Android version provides offline map and over 100 hiking trails in HK, and supporting route drawing, route sharing, route length/gain/loss calculation, time estimation, GPS location, compass, track logging, deviation alert, and etc.

The Wear OS version provides offline map in HK, and supporting route editing, route length/gain/loss calculation, time estimation, GPS location, compass, track logging, deviation alert, and etc. Due to the limited screen size, the Wear OS version does not have built-in trails. Users need to transfer routes from a phone, or create/edit routes in the watch directly. All functions work without phone connection, except route transfer.

Before hiking, you can use the route drawing function to plan the route, and use the elevation profile to infer its difficulty, and estimate the time needed. During hiking, offline map is always available even if there is no data connection, and route deviation alert function can prevent you from getting lost.

You can pay for one-time purchase or annual subscription to unlock the trial features or remove the ads in the app and the website.

Great map. Poor logging. The maps are great for hiking. Very detailed, map does not show steps though, otherwise even better for the bicycle riders. Tracking is very intermittant. It tracks a few 100m, then there is gap, than in tracks again. I would say it tracks about 10-20% of your trail. So for logging it's quite useless.

Thank you for your feedback. Our map data comes from OpenStreetMap, which is open for edit by everyone, so you can also improve the map if you have spare time. The logging issue should be due to battery saving settings. You may try other logging apps, and if they have issues too, I suggest you to ask phone manufacturer for the settings.

I used this app since 2015, and I just paid (mainly to support, I think this app deserve it). The app is great in a few ways, first, the map details is much more useful than other hiking map apps Secondly, it allow me to display various route at the same time. It is a super useful feature for route planning. Finally the route (gpx) can display waypoints, so you can even pin point the location for a specific sign post (eg M101)

The downside of this app is that it's not so intuitive (user friendly) as I needed some time to figure out how to start using it! But after watching some YouTube videos on this app, I found it very user friendly and informative ! Now I wouldn't start hiking without opening it!!! I wonder if the author can adapt the app into other country's versions so that hikers around the world can experience your "brainchild" ?

Hi, actually, we have another app called RouteDraw ( https://www.routedraw.com/ ). Existing Hiking Trail HK users may use it for trip planning in the future. It should be usable for hikers around the world, but they may have other better alternatives.

What's new

- Support showing boundary stone and historic milestone on the map.
- Fix some issues.
