Tired of using the same trail with your horse over and over again ? You are willing to discover new horse trails ? You would like to share your favorite trails with your friends ? Horsetrails is the first iPhone application developed specifically for horseback riders.
Horsetrails is a mobile application designed for horseback riders willing to record their preferred trails or discover new trails.
Trails and maps are stored on your device and work offline (no data connection necessary). You can use the application without GSM coverage or in a foreign country.
Recording functionality
With a click, record your trail. Once the trail is complete it is stored on your phone and you can share it by email with your friends or through our public database on our Horsetrails web platform (www.sensetrails.com/HorseTrails) to share it with any other horse rider. You can comment your trail, define terrain type and/or rate trails published by others.

Maps
We offer free open source maps for the entire world (from openstreetmap.com) and free digital elevation data (for terrain profile along the trail). We also offer commercial maps such as topographic maps and aerial images (satellite photos). Once downloaded maps are stored on your device and you don't need internet connectivity to use them (unlike many other map applications).
Trail information : time, distance, elevation
You are willing to know the time, distance and elevation of the trail before starting it ? We display all the information in the top bar and bottom elevation profile of the application.
