Description

TrekRight: West Highland Way is a comprehensive, incredibly handy mobile app for anyone walking all or part of the West Highland Way or exploring the beautiful region around the trail.
TrekRight includes an in-depth reference 'Trekopedia' (communities, B&Bs / hotels, attractions, services, points of interest, etc.), supports customizable routes, interactive maps (including detailed offline maps), directions and section-by-section guide, dynamic trip stats for your current section, stage, and route, an intelligent compass that shows the right direction based on your current location and chosen route, and more.
# The Right Information, When You Need it
Location-aware information – TrekRight provides you with information tailored to your current location. If you are approaching Drymen, TrekRight will tell you how far you still have to go, what points of interest are available around you, where you can find a pub, options for where to stay the night, easy access to interactive elevation profile charts, and clear, detailed directions. You can easily see what things you flagged as interesting, which things you added notes to, and which you marked as favourites. Real-time information that keeps you completely on top of things!
# Trekopedia
TrekRight’s ‘West Highland Way Encyclopedia’ is packed with extensive interactive reference information, organized into Communities, Accommodation, Attractions, Services, Points of Interest, and Route Sections. Everything can be searched and filtered, viewed on a map, notes can be added (anything from a simple reservation number to a copy-and-pasted blurb from a website), and more. Handy information (literally) at your fingertips!
# Interactive Map / Offline Maps
Powerful, flexible map built on top of our high-quality mapping engine, with full support for detailed offline map imagery. Displays your current location on your selected route along with pins showing all the locations included in the Trekopedia (just touch a pin to open its related Trekopedia entry). Our offline maps mean you don’t require Internet access to use the mapping functionality. Online maps are also available for when you have an Internet connection. Easily filter and do searches. Scroll, zoom, and rotate the map and (in online maps) configure to show street maps, satellite view, terrain, or a hybrid. Completely transform how you ‘see’ your surroundings on the West Highland Way.
# Intelligent Compass
In addition to all the standard compass functionality, TrekRight’s intelligent compass also points you in the right direction based on your current location and your selected route, and updates dynamically as you move. Two special compass indicators are available – one points towards the end point of your current section (typically the next town on the route), and the other points which way you should go now, taking into consideration all the twists and turns in your route. Never get lost again!
# Pre-Departure Planning & Preparation
TrekRight makes it easy to plan your route (including configuring the sections you want to follow), organize it into stages, and review distances and elevations (including a handy interactive Elevation Profile Chart). Comes pre-defined with popular routes (full and partial). Review and rank hotels / B&Bs, flag locations of interest as ‘favourites’, add your own notes, and more. Be prepared!
# Up-To-Date Content
TrekRight’s content is regularly being updated and expanded based on the latest information available to us. You can check for content updates directly inside TrekRight and download our database whenever it is convenient for you (even on the trail), without having to connect to the App Store. Always be up to date!
--- No Internet Connection Required ---
All of TrekRight's content is stored directly on your phone, including our detailed offline maps (once downloaded). No Internet connection is required unless you want to use the online maps.

Terrible UX

Joeyjoeyjoey1234567891010 on

United States

Really awful UX. I should be able to select a stage as current and see all hiking options from that spot. Tough to know how far away I am from accommodations. Compared to other hiking apps like the Camino, this is nearly unusable.

Hiking the West Highland Way

Shesafteradventure on

United States

I can’t begin to praise this app enough in getting me through the 96 miles of hiking I just recently completed. Each day my destinations were there for me, including highlights, trail notes and the most important thing of all, how far I had gone and how much further I had to go. I used it multiple times per day. GPS immediately updated my progress each time I opened it. I just can’t praise this enough and the support I received in the beginning as I navigated through learning.

Very helpful!

I just completed the WHW using this app, and it was a Godsend! Lots of helpful parts, very detailed, almost mile-by-mile descriptions of the trail, and helpful tips and info (elevation details, distance tracker, etc.). I downloaded the map to use offline, since there are many places along the trail with no service, and it worked great! I was able to find myself on the map every time! I highly recommend!!!

I have done the West Highland Way and Glencoe Valley 6 tunes using this app. Quite simply I love it! Only issue is when I can’t get reception in my phone but that’s not the app’s fault. I highly recommend it.

Excepcional

Um ótimo guia. Tudo bem claro e com muitos detalhes. Funciona até onde não tem conexão telefônica. Vou adquirir outros do mesmo autor ! Recomendo muito. Fantástico.

Best West Highland Way app

Iseverynicknametakenyes on

United Kingdom

This is undoubtedly the best app I tried when walking the West Highland Way. Full of useful tips and features. Can be customised for you individual walking plan. Interactive maps and elevation profiles so you can see what’s coming up and ‘get in the zone’. Plus if there are any issues Eugene the Developer is on the end of an email to help you out. Worth double the money!

Brilliant walking aid

ManOrMoose on

United Kingdom

Just completed the West Highland Way with the help of this app. The level of detail and ease of use are exemplary, but the ability to check whereabouts and direction of travel with a glance while offline, especially when the weather closes in, make it a fantastic walking companion. So much easier than wrestling with paper maps (although these should still be carried as backup). Eugene was very responsive to an emailed suggested addition, too. Worth every penny.

Worthwhile purchase

Banana Feet on

United Kingdom

I have recently walked the WHW and found this app invaluable. I took a paper map with me (always a good back up) but never used it as this app with the downloaded trail was really helpful. The WHW is well signposted but now and again it was good to check in with the app that we were on the correct route. Lots of local information included as well. Worth every penny 👍

1st class app

NeilH7 on

United Kingdom

I’m actually using this app now - just got over half way - or 62% as the app easily tells me 🙂 A) 1st class app. B) 1st class help/developer team. C) Why would you save yourself a few pounds by ‘buying’ a (2nd rate) free app? YOU’RE WALKING 95.4 MILLS!! I would highly recommend this app.

Invaluable app for the WHW

Jailes on

United Kingdom

Found this app to be a solid go to guide for the trail, downloadable map was a huge plus and, while never a true substitute for an OS map & compass, is a fantastic go to guide. List of amenities is also useful, one recommendation might be to include guidance on where you can and cannot ‘technically’ wild camp around shores of Lomore. Would definitely recommend for a gander up or down the westy
