It's the world's most widely used trail app, connecting more than 80 million outdoor lovers to a massive library of over 450,000 curated trails across the globe.

The free version of AllTrails offers solid tools for trail discovery and navigation, while AllTrails Plus adds advanced navigation tools that work even when you're far away from a cell tower.

Right now, when you sign up for AllTrails Plus or Peak, you'll get a week-long free trial to take AllTrails along on your next hike and decide for yourself.
From free tools to all-out trail companion
AllTrails has long been a favorite tool for anyone who wants to get outside with more confidence and less guesswork. At its core the app is simple: you can search for trails, read user reviews and navigate routes with GPS. It's personalized and packed with details you didn't know you needed, from trail length and elevation to dog-friendliness and scenic highlights.
AllTrails
The free AllTrails Base membership grants users access to trail discovery, navigation, and activity sharing, which is great for anyone dipping their toes into hiking, running, or biking.
If you regularly head into areas with poor cell service or want an added layer of safety, AllTrails Plus is well worth the upgrade. For $35.99 per year (about $3 a month) AllTrails Plus unlocks helpful tools like offline maps, 3D trail previews, real-time navigation with turn alerts and the ability to share your live location with friends or family. There are also curated collections for inspiration, park-specific pages with important info like hours and entry fees, and fun social features like Trail Recap for sharing your completed treks. Whether you're planning a national park trip or just looking for nearby nature escapes, Plus is an affordable way to make your time outdoors safer, smoother, and more enjoyable.
AllTrails
For those who want an even more personalized and powerful planning experience, the new AllTrails Peak membership is the real game-changer. Launched as part of the app's summer 2025 update, Peak includes everything in the Plus tier and adds four premium features designed to give users greater control and insight before and during a trip. For $79.99 per year (about $7 a month), members can now get access to Custom Routes, a Community Heatmap, Trail Conditions, and the upcoming Outdoor Lens. Whether you're a weekend wanderer, an all-season trail runner, or a global summit chaser, Peak is packed with features that add serious value for outdoor enthusiasts of all levels.
AllTrails Peak is your comprehensive outdoor companion
AllTrails Peak's new tools aim to solve real-world problems that trailgoers often face. The Custom Routes feature is especially useful for those who want to make an outing their own—whether that's extending a hike to hit a scenic overlook or shortening it a touch to suit your crew. You can start from scratch or modify any of AllTrails' existing routes, then save and share your customized version with friends. It's ideal for group hikes, training plans, or building your ultimate bucket-list adventure.
AllTrails
Trail Conditions gives you a heads-up on everything from weather and terrain to air quality and even mosquito activity. Planning a weekend hike during wildfire season or allergy-prone spring days? Hiking somewhere you might experience drastic changes in temperature as you climb or descend? This kind of info helps you prepare better, dress smarter, and avoid disappointing last-minute changes.
Likewise, the Community Heatmap shows the most popular trails in any area, letting you choose between a more social experience or a quieter, less-traveled route—especially handy if you're hiking solo or visiting somewhere new. And while Outdoor Lens is still coming soon, it promises to turn your smartphone into a nature guide, helping you safely identify plants, trees, and more along the way.
AllTrails
Peak transforms AllTrails into much more than a trail-finding app: it's now a smarter, more personalized outdoor planning tool. Even casual hikers will appreciate the convenience and confidence it brings, while more frequent explorers will likely find it pays for itself in just a few weekends.
Start your free trial of AllTrails and get started — or go further — today
Whether you're new to hiking or a seasoned trail veteran, AllTrails continues to be one of the most reliable and feature-rich trail apps available. With the addition of the Peak membership, users now have access to even more detailed planning tools and real-time insights that can enhance both safety and enjoyment on the trail.

5 secret beauty spots in north Cumbria to avoid the crowds
AH, the Lake District. That glorious, sweaty, rain-drenched Instagram darling where sheep outnumber residents and the car parks are full of unused and expensive hiking boots, pampered labradors, and desperate city escapees. Of course, a healthy intake of tourists makes for a certain vibrancy, but there are times when the clogged single-track lanes, mile-long queues for an ice cream, and lack of any seats in the pubs get a bit too much. Thankfully, what many visitors don't know is there are parts of Cumbria where the buses stop early, the mobile signal waves a merciful white flag, and the cafés haven't yet discovered oat milk. Here are five of my favourite under-the-radar days out in north Cumbria to avoid the crowds that are weird, wonderful, and blessedly lacking in coach parties and selfie-sticks. 1. Talkin Tarn – The Anti-Windermere Tucked just outside Brampton (yes, that Brampton - the one where your sat-nav gets confused), Talkin Tarn Country Park is like Windermere's introverted cousin who reads poetry and quietly judges you for bringing disposable BBQs. Talkin Tarn is hardly 'undiscovered', and does attract a healthy amount of visitors (for good reason), but if you fancy whiling away a few hours by a picturesque body of water, you won't have to fight your way through crowds to see it (see disclaimer at the end!). It's a marvellously understated glacial lake surrounded by woodland paths, with enough charm to lose yourself in nature, and (usually) a peaceful serenity a far cry from its brasher relatives. Talkin Tarn Country Park (Image: Archive) You can walk around the whole tarn in 25 minutes, which means it's perfect for lazy strollers, families with pushchairs, or those of us nursing a hangover and clutching a questionable takeaway coffee. There's a quaint café, boats to hire in summer, and plenty of wildlife to keep the kids interested. Crucially, it's blissfully lacking in overpriced fudge shops. 2. Gilsland Spa – Crumbling Romance and Sulphur Springs Gilsland Spa is where history, geology, and a strong odour of rotten eggs collide. Straddling the border of Cumbria and Northumberland like a dithering Geordie, the village of Gilsland is home to an famous old spa hotel, breath-taking gorge walks, and the kind of riverside bridges that dare you to have a quiet existential moment mid-way across. An aerial shot of Gilsland (Image: Archive) Follow the path down to the sulphur well (bring a strong stomach) and remember our hardy forefathers who used to bathe in this noxious substance for their health. The views are gorge-ous (sorry), the geology fascinating, and the foot traffic minimal. Bonus points for the spooky Victorian vibe and the perfectly credible local insistence that everywhere is haunted. 3. Bewcastle – Where History Sleeps and No One Wakes It Another fascinating spot within easy reach of Hadrian's Wall, Bewcastle is a truly atmospheric gem of a place. If you like your attractions ancient, obscure, and in a state of semi-collapse, Bewcastle is the stuff of dreams. This village is home to the ruins of a Roman fort, a church with serious Saxon street cred, and one of the most impressive Anglo-Saxon crosses in the country - which you'll probably have to yourself because nobody seems to remember it exists. Atmospheric Bewcastle is full of historic sites (Image: Google Maps) Bewcastle is where you go when you want to feel profoundly insignificant in the nicest possible way. It's quiet, it's haunting, and there's something deeply comforting about crumbling stones that have survived empires while you fail to keep you sole houseplant alive. 4. Bowness-on-Solway – The End of the World (Or At Least the Wall) Forget the other Bowness – this is where those in the know go. Head west until your signal dies and the sky gets weirdly big, and you'll reach Bowness-on-Solway — where Hadrian's Wall ends with a resigned shrug into the Irish Sea. It's windswept, wonderfully bleak, and home to more birds than humans (ornithologists, rejoice). Bowness-on-Solway's enchanting coastline (Image: Google Maps) This is the perfect place for people who like the idea of finishing a Roman trail but are too lazy to walk 84 miles of it. You can arrive in a warm car, take in the view, mutter something about Roman ambition, and then pop into the King's Arms for a pint and a pie, all the while feeling smugly superior to those circling the other Bowness for three hours desperate for a parking spot. The views over the Solway Firth are nothing short of ethereal, the sunsets are world-class, and the air smells like seaweed and sheep. 5. The Eden Viaducts – Bridges to Nowhere and a Cracking Walk Once vital arteries of the railway network, the Eden Viaducts near Langwathby now stand like solemn, overgrown reminders of Britain's knack for building brilliant things and then shutting them down for budget reasons. But what a sight they are. Take the walk around the Eden Valley and you'll find the likes of Smardale Gill and the majestic Lacy Viaduct. These great stone beasts stretch across gorges and rivers like Roman aqueducts on a gap year. Smardale Gill Viaduct (Image: Julian Thurgood) You'll meet a few dog walkers, the occasional suspicious sheep, and probably no one else. Bring good boots, some ham and pease pudding sandwiches, and your best 'lost Victorian railway enthusiast' energy. You'll look the part, even if you haven't seen an OS map since you scraped through you Silver Duke of Edinburgh award at school. DISCLAIMER - I can only speak from personal experience – if you decide to visit any of these places, there could be throngs of tourists that day, but I'm not sure my influence alone is great enough to cause such a shift. But as we are now on the sprint to the summer holidays, and some of Cumbria's more fashionable hotspots already starting to feel as busy as a 1970s pub carpet, you may want to get your explorer's hat on and try on these – or better still, seek out your own undiscovered gems – it's much more fun that way.

5 charming villages in the Lake District visitors must visit
As the summer holidays are just round the corner, families flock to the Lake District to enjoy scenic views, beautiful lakes and idyllic towns and villages. Whether you're seeking serene lakeside views, rich cultural heritage, or outdoor adventures, charming villages can be the perfect tranquil escape, even better with a pub. We have collated five villages Lake District visitors must visit. Allan Bank in Grasmere Famous for being the home of poet William Wordsworth, Grasmere is a must-visit for literary enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Stroll around the serene Grasmere Lake or visit Dove Cottage, Wordsworth's former residence, now a museum. For those literary lovers, they can visit Sam Read bookshop, which has been standing since 1895. For the foodies in the group, there is scope to try the legendary Grasmere Gingerbread, a unique treat beloved by visitors. Coniston has a wide range of activities Nestled beside Coniston Water, this relaxing village is a haven for outdoor activities and history. Coniston is closely linked to the writer and artist John Ruskin, whose former home, Brantwood, is now a museum. Visitors also can enjoy a relaxing boat trip on the lake, explore nearby Tarn Hows, or hike up the Old Man of Coniston for stunning panoramic views of the area. You could also visit Bluebird K7, in the Ruskin museum, Donald Campbell's jet-powered hydroplane. Campbell broke seven world water speed records, four of them on Coniston Water. Hawkshead is steeped in history, especially literary Set in the Vale of Esthwaite in the heart of the Lake District, Hawkshead is a truly historic and wonderfully picturesque village just waiting to be explored. Hawkshead is an ideal gateway to the breathtaking scenery of the Lakes, providing a peaceful base for those looking to connect with nature. The surrounding countryside promises many walks for all skill levels, from gentle strolls to Wainwrights and hill climbing. A Peter Rabbit fan? Hawkshead has you covered, the Beatrix Potter Gallery offers a glimpse into the beloved author's illustrations, while the Old Grammar School, attended by William Wordsworth, adds historical charm. Caldbeck is a hidden gem within the Lakes The traditional fell village of Caldbeck is situated under the Northern Fells of the Lake District. The village is characterised by its quaint stone cottages, charming lanes, and the gentle flow of the River Caldbeck, which meanders through the landscape, creating a picturesque setting that feels like stepping back in time. The Muddy Duck Café Bar is a must visit after a stroll through the village. Another notable attraction includes the Priests Mill, which is an old watermill built by a rector of Caldbeck on the riverbank just below the Church where John Peel and the Beauty of Buttermere lie buried. Threlkeld has a Quarry and Mining Museum celebrating the village's heritage (Image: Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum) The village of Threlkeld is situated at the foot of the mighty Blencathra looking towards St John's in the Vale. Threlkeld is an ideal base for exploring the Lake District and the Eden Valley. It is a thriving village with a church, school, two pubs, a golf course and a cricket club. Situated on the famous Coast to Coast (C2C) cycling route from Workington to Sunderland, the village can act as a perfect pit stop for cyclists.
