About Runaway Trails

Find a place. Understand the trails. Get outside.

Runaway Trails exists to make discovering places to run and understanding parks easier. It brings routes, maps and useful park context together, so you can move from wondering where to go to exploring a place that interests you.

Room to explore

A calm, useful experience matters. Search for a place you know, take a closer look at a featured park, or compare routes before choosing one. The aim is to help you explore without adding noise.

Information with a source

Route facts and park information should be trustworthy and attributed. Source links help you see where information comes from; missing details stay missing. Maps and descriptions are a starting point, and current access and conditions are best checked with the managing agency.

Free access to routes and maps

Keeping route and map access free is part of the purpose of Runaway Trails. You can browse places and open route details without an account. My Routes adds a personal place to keep routes you want to try or have completed.
