Not great for trails
I downloaded this app just to use for trails, and honestly it made things way more confusing. The information doesn’t match the maps at the cabins/welcome center, and you can’t actually use it as a guide in any way. Deleting it.
Potential to be Great
We recently used this app on our first trip and thought it was great…until we got lost and ended up on the wrong trail. After backtracking, we discovered the trails on the app aren’t consistent with what’s posted at the trail head. One of the trails in the app has been closed and no longer in use! Next time, I’ll just take a photo of the map at the trail head and not bother with the app.

Disappointed
Slow responses to touch prompts in app. Dead website links
Not many trail options
Only a couple of the bigger trails. Not much info.
Junk app
Ordered a Hocking Hills shirt for $25 and they never sent it, but claim they did. Tried six times to chat with someone who could help, but the app is so junky, it stops letting you type when you have questions for “Spring” their customer service bot/humans (maybe). Had to contact my bank to get my money back and report the merchant as fraudulent. Such a headache.

Maps need to be updated
A nice app, especially with the limited internet access in the area. But, the hiking maps are all totally out of date! The Ash Cave map shows a trail on the left-hand side of the gorge. The park maps don't, and so I asked a ranger about that trail - he said it had been closed for over 10 years!
Useful
Helped us find something different to go and hike... instead of the same old places! Needs some updating it seems with what to do or places to eat?
A must have
I usually just “wing it “ when I’m taking a short trip or vacation. The idea is to not be tied down to any specific plans.
This app gave me the ability to see what was available at a moments notice.
5/5 , would recommend !

Quality app
I live near the Hocking Hills and attend Hocking College during the school year, which allows me to frequently visit the beautiful areas that were gifted to have. This app is able to get me to where I want to hike and shows me photos of accurate depictions of the foreseen trail ahead, I would recommend this app to anyone visiting the area. Take it from a local that you will not be disappointed.

Misleading
The directions to each trail were inaccurate. The picture for the whispering cave trail is misleading and inaccurate. It features a large man-made stairway through the picturesque cave side. That doesn’t exist. The trail is rated moderate to difficult, that area where the pic shows that awesome staircase is actually stone steps that are uneven and treacherous. We lost the trail at one point because it wasn’t labeled throughout. I’m glad the app was free...

Hocking hills
We love this area of Ohio so much we live here.We love to ride the many scenic byways and back roads on our motorcycle through 3 seasons of the year. No better place to be!
Not what I expected
I heard about this app and a few days before I went down to hocking hills for the weekend I thought this app would be useful nope I was wrong.
The app never did work because of no cell service or access to the internet.. I have contacted the developers that made the app and they are hoping to make improvements in the future.

Hocking Hills
Very helpful on our recent trip to the hills!
Yooo
Excellent app, used it a ton when I was in the area
Great app.
Downloaded the app before our day trip. Has great turn by turn and a map for when there isn't any cell service. Keep up the good work.
GET IT
Beautiful to look at, easy to use, very informative. GET IT!
Doesn't say where it is.
Leaves out basic info, doesn't have all trails....
Best ever!!
Wow! So easy to use and informative!
Awesome!
Truly fantastic! This app was a huge help on our trip to the Hocking Hills! Would definitely recommend.
Great App 👍🏼
Although I lived in the Hocking Hills for 18 years, this app has provided me with information that was unknown prior to downloading. It is very organized and helpful not only to tourists, but even locals. If you're planning a visit to the Hocking Hills, I highly recommend downloading this helpful and detailed application.
