Features & Capabilities

Trail Router helps you discover new running routes.

Our routing algorithm prefers paths that go through parks, forests or by water, and avoids busy roads wherever possible.

Here's a few things you can do with Trail Router:

  • Automatically plot a round-trip route of a desired distance.
  • Manually create your own point-to-point route that prefers greenery and water.
  • Choose whether you'd prefer routes that involve nature, well-lit streets or a lack of hills.
  • Export your routes to GPX or KML, suitable for use on GPS watches

User Reviews

Users praise Trail Router for its easy-to-use UI and ability to map and discover local running routes, with no ads. However, recurring issues include inaccurate route lengths and lack of decimals/waypoints, safety concerns crossing busy roads, and unreliable navigation features.
Pros
  • Simple, intuitive UI/UX across app and web
  • Helps discover new local trails and map running routes
  • Free to use with no ads or hidden fees
  • Effective for finding good routes in new areas
Cons
  • Route planning can be inaccurate or inflexible (lengths don’t match requested, decimals unsupported, no waypoint editing)
  • Safety concerns: routes may require crossing busy roads and there’s no option to mark unsafe streets
  • Navigation features are unreliable (turn-by-turn prompts often fail, laggy, or pause unexpectedly)

I love this app and I so appreciate that it’s both free and ad-free. However, for the love of god do not rely on the audio instructions. They’re intermittent at best, usually slow, and often silent all together. Do not rely on them. You will get lost. You must keep an eye on the map.

Found this app through an old Reddit thread and it really helped me get back into running. Discovered new trails near my house to run that I probably wouldn’t have found otherwise.
