Going off-road with Beeline

Want to go for a ride off-road with Beeline guiding the way?

Updated over a week ago

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 Compass Mode.

For off-road Beeline adventures, we recommend using the Compass Mode function to jump-start your journey!

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.

Compass Mode allows you to create your own route, as 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.

If there is anywhere you would particularly like to pass through on your ride, you may want to set some waypoints. You can set these by tapping on the grey line route and dragging the orange marker!

Alternatively, you can import a GPX file onto your app and use it with Compass Mode! You can find the GPX import tutorial here.

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.


​Important 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 prioritize safety at all times. Always prioritize safety, and when unsure do not take risks.

If you are not yet in the Beeline family and want to test this out for yourself, please download our app for free here and give it a try!
