About Waymarked Trails
Waymarked Trails is an online map that highlights marked long-distance and local routes recorded in OpenStreetMap. The hiking map shows waymarked walking trails on top of a base map, and companion maps cover cycling and horse riding routes.
Because the data comes from OpenStreetMap, coverage depends on what local mappers have entered, and corrections are made in OpenStreetMap itself. It suits walkers and riders looking for existing signposted routes in an area before planning a trip.
Strengths
- Shows officially signposted routes rather than generic paths
- Separate maps for hiking, cycling and riding
- Based on openly editable OpenStreetMap data
Limitations
- Route coverage varies with local OpenStreetMap mapping
- A viewing map, not a turn-by-turn navigation app
