Explore Winter Trails with OsmAnd’s Snowmobile Mode

When the landscape turns white and roads become snowy paths, OsmAnd is your perfect winter riding companion.

With the dedicated Snowmobile map style, you can easily identify official routes right on the map. Trails mapped as route=snowmobile in OpenStreetMap appear clearly, distinct from standard roads. Because OsmAnd works completely offline, you can rely on guidance even in backcountry areas with zero network coverage.

Just tap on a visible trail on the map to follow the track and start your adventure.
