Whilst the Beeline app has been designed first and foremost to route you on known roads within our road network (data provided by OpenStreetMaps), off-road riding is still possible within the Beeline experience, with a couple of options within the Beeline app:
Ride with Compass Mode. Compass Mode allows you to create your own route, as your Beeline points you toward your final destination. Imagine a compass that knows where you want to go and points there instead of north. You can learn more about Compass Mode here.
For off-road Beeline adventures planned by other providers, we recommend using GPX imports via Breadcrumb Mode to jump-start your journey! This will give you the mini-map view (on Velo 2 and Moto II devices) with the route line guiding you along your journey. To learn more about Breadcrumb imports, please find our support article here.
Please note: the traditional Route Mode routing navigation is designed solely for use on roads and the routing in this mode will do what it can to guide you back onto the roads when on your journey.
Disclaimer:
Off-road routes, by their nature, can be challenging and may involve varying terrain, obstacles, and potential hazards. Users are solely responsible for their safety and decision-making while navigating these routes.
βImportant Considerations:
Terrain and Conditions: Users must assess the terrain, weather conditions, and their own abilities before embarking on any off-road route.
Local Laws and Restrictions: It is the user's responsibility to research and comply with all applicable local, regional, and national laws and regulations concerning off-road vehicle use, access restrictions, and environmental protection. This includes but is not limited to, obtaining necessary permits, respecting private property, and adhering to designated trail closures.
Environmental Responsibility: Users are expected to practice responsible off-road riding, minimizing environmental impact and respecting natural resources.
Beeline strongly recommends that users exercise caution, ride within their limits, and prioritise safety at all times. Always prioritise safety, and when unsure, do not take risks.
