AlpineQuest GPS Hiking Lite is the free solution for all outdoor activities and sports, including hiking, running, trailing, hunting, sailing, geocaching, off-road navigation and much more.
You can access and store locally a large range of on-line topographic maps, which will remain available even while being out of cell coverage. AlpineQuest also supports on-board file based maps, like MemoryMap(c) maps.
By using the GPS and the magnetic sensor of your device (with compass display), getting lost is part of the past: you are localized in real-time on the map, which can also be oriented to match where you are looking at.
By staying fully operational out of cell coverage (as often in mountain or abroad), AlpineQuest assists you in all your desires of deep wilderness exploring...

My most favourite app so far. Offline maps are a breeze to make using mobile atlas compiler. Thank you for this wonderful app!

Won't let me open my qct file in free mode. Not willing to risk money on the paid version before I know it will work.

Compass inaccurate. Shows North different depending on portrait or landscape mode. Portrait seems ok.
