Take this guide with you when walking the Cape to Cape Track. It has all the information you need to both navigate and prepare for the Track. Its built by local Western Australians who have walked the Track several times and live only a few km from the Track. We know the area!
The guide works 100% without needing mobile phone reception or Internet access. The offline maps are very detailed, show the Cape to Cape Track, show where you are via GPS, and are marked up with camping areas, sightseeing, water sources, places to swim, some accommodation, restaurants and food shops, the best beachs, sights and many other points of interest. The App shows you how many kilometres you are from places like camping area and towns, and has an interactive elevation graph so you can see what hills are between you and places.
The App has advice on how to prepare for your trip, what gear to bring, when to walk, possible itineraries and suitable food. It has many other features, photos and information, as described below.
FEATURES:
