AllTrails has mapped over 45,000 trails in the U.S.

March 28th, 2012 by Susan Smith

AllTrails‘ 200,000 members have mapped over 45,000 trails. These trails include routes and information pertinent to many different activities including hiking, mountain biking, skiing, and snowboarding. They didn’t mention horseback riding, another group that maps a lot of trails.

Results of trail searches are displayed on a Google Map. You can then refine the trails shown by getting the driving distance from your current location, get trail length and other information.
