Check out AllTrails for biking, running, hiking and outdoor excursions. Available for free on both iOS and Android, this app allows users the inside scoop on more than 50,000 trails. Explore, plan and record new hikes and save them in your app history to revisit. Look at maps and read expert tips and must-see site suggestions while planning or on the move.

Use your phone’s camera to locate peak names and elevations and track your location with PeakVisor. Available on iOS devices for $4, PeakVisor provides a 3D compass and incredible graphics to detail your mountain location.

During the changing seasons, Weather Live is a vital app to have while venturing outdoors. Available on iOS and Android for $2–3, this app brings users satellite updates with meteorological data including wind speed, direction, humidity, air pressure, precipitation and visibility.
