Trail Finder
Scroll through a list of hiking trail & geocaching routes submitted by ACGA members over the years. The trail list is sorted alphabetically, but allow location services to sort the list by distance. This list will continue to grow!
You can view all trails on map view. Tap each pushpin to view the trail name, distance & further details.
The map view will allow you to not only find the nearest trail, but also help to keep you on track.

Help Make This App Better
We've made the first step and laid out the framework of the app, now we're looking at you to help guide the app in the right direction.
Submit Content
ACGA can't keep up with all of the activity in Atlantic Canada, we need you to help submit some news, articles, etc... Did you go to an event? write about and send it to us!
Submit a Trail
The Trail Finder feature is 100% user built. These are actual gpx trackfile. We're missing a trail? send in your gpx & short description and we'll add it. We want this to be the premiere trail resource for the region.

About The Developer
The iOS app was built from the ground by up LOFTYSOFT, a one person operation. As ACGA is a non-profit, we're very happy to have their time partially donated towards the continued development of the app. The app will be available at the iTunes store as a paid app. Proceeds will help offset the time & cost of past & future development by LOFTYSOFT & ACGA.
