Confident navigation with your smartphone


We create personalised GPS trail maps to help hikers navigate their journey in the same way they would in urban areas. These maps are aligned to a hiker’s route/plan and can be used on any Android or Apple smartphone.

As the mobile trail map works offline, no cell/mobile reception is necessary to use it for navigation.  This is because the mobile map uses the GPS function of your smartphone which utilises satellite position rather than cell/mobile phone towers providing internet or cell signal. This offline feature is useful in parts of the trail where there is no cell/mobile signal and especially for international travelers that choose not to buy a local sim or activate a data roaming package.

 
 

Your location and itinerary details on the map

When you arrive on the trail, your location will be highlighted on the map and your personalised hiking statistics displayed for each section and day of your itinerary, including:

  • distance,

  • elevation gain and loss, and

  • estimated hiking time (based on your specific speed).

 

Coloured Markers to highlight points of interest along the trail

Prepare for each day on the trail with key points of interest, including:

  • toilet,

  • water refill,

  • food/supermarkets, and

  • laundry locations.

Bad Weather and alternate Routes

Change to an easier hiking route (where possible) in case of bad weather or desire to skip a difficult section (i.e ladders or swing bridge).
