Navigation Guidance
A GPS or smartphone should only be used as a supplement to traditional navigation tools, not as your sole resource. Paper maps, compasses, and manual navigation skills provide greater safety. GPS and smartphone data should guide, but not dictate, your navigation. All GPX files downloaded from this site are for reference only.
Why GPS Distances May Vary:
The distances listed on Trail Hiking Australia are based on mapped routes, GPX data, and field verification. However, hiker-recorded distances may vary due to differences in GPS accuracy, tracking methods, terrain, and route choices. Small discrepancies (up to 5–10%) are normal and can occur even between different devices on the same hike. Please consider these variations when planning your hike.
Geo Data Download Disclaimer
All geographic data on this site is intended for visual representation and should not be relied upon for precise navigation. Use of this material is at your own risk, and by accessing it, you agree to these terms. For long-distance trails, it is strongly recommended to purchase official maps and guidebooks.
The data is sourced from a handheld GPS and has not been professionally surveyed, meaning it may not be accurate for precise navigation. Trail Hiking Australia and Darren Edwards make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of this data and accept no liability for errors or omissions, even if caused by negligence.
