Real data from real hikers in real time
I used this app on the GR11 and it was very helpful to able to see recent reports on water sources and camping spots.
The cicerone guidebook is helpful but necessarily contains way less information than can be found in this app (or the book would be 1000 pages long!)

Perfected by Hiking
I recently used this app on one of the lesser travelled European trails, the GR11. For mega popular hikes trails apps are more or less interchangeable but the real test is when you don’t have a queue of hikers to follow. TrailLegs passed the test. It worked flawlessly to give me a huge variety of data sources beyond following the red line. Perfect examples are accurate water sources, camping locations and resupply along the trail.
TrailLegs takes the guess work out of hiking, offering the vital nuggets of information that make your day-to-day calculations easy and frees you up to enjoy your walk. It suits me as a “turn up and get on with it” hiker. I realise that’ll frustrate the excel sheet planners and the map and compass brigade but they need to be a bit more present or straight-up stop living in the 1950s.
With Trail Legs it’s all there in one place. Just don’t forget to download your maps before you lose service.

Incredible resource on the Via Alpina (and future trails)
So grateful for this app, which centralized route planning and made finding / taking alternates very easy while I was on the Via Alpina. There is alr a strong user base building up community reports for the Via Alpina (and other trails, esp in EU) which means there are helpful waypoints for planning water carries, town stops / resupplies, finding spots to camp, etc. And we were able to use trail family features to keep track of friends along the way. There are also useful features that don’t depend on user base, like elevation profiles, planning custom routes, weather (more accurate than Garmin), an guard dog territories, VERY nice to reference all in one place. I’m really happy to have had this for 2000km+ on the VA through 8 countries, and plan to use this for future trails too (Te Aroroa, next hopefully). Also really appreciate how responsive to feedback the developer has been - thanks Menno!
