About AllTrails

AllTrails is an app and website for finding trails for hiking, biking, camping and running. It brings together curated guides, trail maps, photos and reviews for a very large number of trails worldwide, and visitors can search by city, park or trail name or look at popular trails near them. Each listing shows details such as difficulty, distance and estimated time.

The service also helps people during the trip itself. Users can record their activities with live tracking, download maps of trails and parks so they remain usable without a signal, and build or edit their own routes. Recaps and sharing let them relive a day out afterwards. AllTrails is a hosted commercial product with mobile apps, with no self-hosted option.
