Zoom out to choose. Zoom in to walk.
The layer draws marked hiking trails straight on the map. For now it shows where the trails run; details for each trail are on the way.
Hiking trails
Two ways to look.
Same map
Trails, plus everything around them.
- Map styles: put the trails over topography, satellite or 3D terrain
- Parking: see where a route starts and where you can leave the van
- Weather: check wind, rain and clouds over the same ground
Trail cards Coming soon
A card for every trail.
Tap a trail and read about it, the way you can with takeoffs and parking today. That part is in development.
The layer in numbers

Before you lace up
Can I open a single trail and see its details?
Not yet. Today the layer shows where marked trails run and their numbers. A card for each trail is in development.
Is XCmap really free?
Yes. Right now XCmap has only a free version: the map, every sport layer and the forecasts, with no credit card and nothing to pay.
Where in the world does it work?
Anywhere you travel. The map and the weather forecasts are global. Spots such as takeoffs, campings and service points come from open data, partners and travelers, so some regions are mapped in more detail than others, and coverage grows as people contribute.
Where does the data come from?
Base maps come from OpenStreetMap. Spots, amenities and warnings come from open datasets, data partners and the travelers who use XCmap, through their reports and reviews. Weather comes from forecast models.
