Lake Okeechobee Trail

Started at Pahokee Marina. Not what we expected. Very rough gravel trail and construction at several points. Disappointing for sure.

Greatest ap

I love TrailLink

First timers

Thanks for creating this app, it helped us get going on an unknown trail!

Very Insightful!

We love to ride and this app gives us more detail then we could ask for!

Challenging trail

I love OCA! But it’s not a walk in the park and if you are looking for a cardio training path you might be disappointed with the stops and starts. The terrain can be rough with rocks and roots and erosion damage especially after heavy rain. Thicker tires are necessary. Certain spots also have a lot of pedestrian traffic and they are often oblivious to their surroundings with earbuds drowning out your approach warnings. I’ve had people wander right in front of my path even as I’m shouting “on your left!!”

It is beautiful, though! Lots of deer and other critters watch silently as you pedal past.

Newest Update resolves previous issues

I love TrailLink. It is my go to resource for finding new trails in new locations. The app allows me to find suitable trails for my road bike, and then helps me easily navigate to them. The maps, trail info, and reviews are extremely valuable to me.

It will still take me a little more time to get used to the new UI, but the developer seems to have fixed the problems I previously had. Thanks, TrailLink, for reaching out to me and working to make the app awesome again.

******** previous review: Most of my favorite functionality is gone in the new update. I hate that I can no longer “redo search in this area” to search for trails in the area I have showing on the map. I am a truck driver and pretty much search for new trails every day, depending on where I happen to be that day.

The search location screen is disastrous. If I try to tap one of the autofill suggestions, entirely different cities and states are filled in. I also hate that I can no longer just scroll around the map and see all the trails in the country.

I know, with new updates it takes a while to get the wrinkles ironed out. I have faith the developers will fix these problems. Hopefully soon, as this is one of my most often used apps! *******end of previous review

Response from developer

Hi, it would be helpful if you could contact us at traillinksupport@railstotrails.org so we can take a closer look at what you're running into. There now is a "Search this area" button on the Nearby Trails Screen in version 2.0.4 and we have Nearby Trails map layer option on the map screen. We'll look into adding the "Search this area" option to the individual map screen as well. Thanks! Hi there, we just released version 2.0.4 today which added the "Search this area" functionality back to the nearby trails screen, so you can zoom into any area on the map again to search for trails! We are also working on making improvement to the auto-complete search which will be added in an upcoming release. Thanks for your feedback as we try to make the app better with each release!

Recent Update Still Buggy

Thanks to the Developer for contacting me. I will get in touch with you later today. I’ll take screenshots of the issues I’m coming across. Catch up with you soon.

Thanks for the recent update. Initially after the recent update I had trouble logging in, couldn’t access my Favorites, I couldn’t add any new Favorites, and I couldn’t access my Downloads. As well, I would keep getting a message saying there is an error with the Format. While I am able to do the above now, there still are some bugs. For example, My Favorites show up a (0) but when I click into Favorites they are there. I still keep getting that Format error whenever I try to access anything Trail or Map related.

Response from developer

Hi there, I am sorry to hear that you're still running into issues with your account. Unfortunately, I'm unable to replicate this error but please contact us at traillinksupport@railstotrails.org so we can take a closer look. We are about to push version 2.0.2 which includes a couple additional bug fixes with this major 2.0 release. Thanks for the support and feedback!

Not for Ontario or Canada

Downloaded app and searched for many of the amazing MTB trails in Ontario and no results we found. Continue with other Canadian areas with no results. US only

Love the app but have one suggestion

I love this app. We just got into biking this year and have enjoyed trying out new routes. I prefer biking on trails more than roads and have downloaded a dozen maps so far. They are very useful since most trials don’t have adequate signage and therefore we can use gps with the app.

My only complaint is this. We prefer to ride a minimum of 20 miles at a time. If I see a trail that is only 3 miles long I will skip it. Not worth the drive. But I’ve realized that a lot of these continue where another trail ended. It’s really hard to see this on the app. Would be nice to have a filter on the app that would show all the trails in an area.

All in all I love this app. Can’t wait to go out and explore more trails.

No info for Ontario, Canada. 🙁
