Pros

  • Apps such as Kamoot and all trails are really good for finding hikes if you're unsure.
  • https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/slovenia/bohinj/the-valley-of-the-seven-lakes-hike
  • Apps such as AllTrails make it easy to find footpaths. This is especially helpful for a generation more accustomed to reading from a phone screen than a map.
  • They post the AllTrails links which makes it super easy to follow and explain how to get there.
  • hike lake louise (little beehive trail on AllTrails map) ... hike Cougar creek and Benchlands ridge trail in Canmore, (Again, AllTrails App)

Cons

  • so they ended up starting late, running out of food and water, hiking slow, running out of juice for phone- alltrails, unexpected bivouac…
  • All of the hiking was very well signed and there wasn't much need to utilize AllTrails to figure out directions even though we had it available.
  • I've written a complaint to an AllTrails route where people said it was an easy/moderate hike and it was absolutely harrowing. I'm exceptionally fit. When I looked back on those positive reviews (for the ones who had their activity linke...
  • If AllTrails says it's "challenging", then I'm going to assume that, for your average-level hiker, it will be a challenging hike. Period. If you're exceptionally fit and trail run it every weekend, great. But then don't come on a hiking...
  • All Trails entire model relies on user supplied data, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that this is occurring. It’s a shit app and there are much better options out there

I've written a complaint to an AllTrails route where people said it was an easy/moderate hike and it was absolutely harrowing. I'm exceptionally fit. When I looked back on those positive reviews (for the ones who had their activity linked) they didn't do the full hike -- they turned around. Those people almost killed me.

If AllTrails says it's "challenging", then I'm going to assume that, for your average-level hiker, it will be a challenging hike. Period. If you're exceptionally fit and trail run it every weekend, great. But then don't come on a hiking forum on scoff that it's "honestly pretty easy"

Gaia is so much better. AllTrails is garbage.
