Reviews: What People Think About C&O Canal Explorer

„Navigation“ is not intuitive or helpful, especially for planning. The „Getting Started“ section says there’s a map, but I can’t find it AT ALL! I would return this purchase if possible. I guess it’s a donation to the Trust but not a planning tool for the user. It may tell you what’s just up ahead or behind you on the path but if you’re trying to plan from home, this is not useful at all.

Issues mentioned in earlier reviews seem to be fixed, you can easily plan from home by scanning the trail for points of interest and amenities. The photos are helpful (I was between two restroom options and from the pics I chose the bath house over the portables!) but where this app really shines is the background information and historical detail about all the sites along the way. I could’ve hiked right past the Clara Barton house thinking yeah that’s cool without knowing the story about the roller coaster built around her house in a failed attempt to force her out. I’ll probably still use All Trails, google maps, and other tools in addition to this for more involved planning, but the info in this app is a treasure! Well worth the .99 for history and detail you won’t find elsewhere.

Difficult to navigate. Not very useful for planning trips. Somewhat useful while on a trail but only so far as telling u how much further to next spot on trail.
