Hikers, joggers and cyclists will often turn to technology in an effort to track progress on their outdoor pursuits.

Not only can you now prove the route traversed along the winding, mountainous and exhausting terrain that the average walker would avoid, but you can also present it in style.

On the Right Track

GPS technology can be found within watches -specifically for tracking progress. The results can then be exported to a separate piece of software in the comfort of your own home.

Trails not only records your trekking exploits, but will present the information on detailed terrain maps with additional data on altitudes, speed and other relevant facts all within the same app.

This encourages a jogger’s pursuit of not only a faster time, but of a consistent pace around the location of choice. A constant battle of pushing yourself ever harder and just like the professionals – examining the data and comparing previous attempts.

Cache in Hand

When exploring the great outdoors, a connection to the online world isn’t always possible, however Trails downloads maps for offline use meaning you never miss a step.
