Multi-Use Trails

Multi-Use Trails

Our maps contain an incredible amount of trail information including clearly defined trails for hiking, mountain biking and winter recreation. Trailheads are clearly labelled and include symbols for the appropriate trail activities, and our industry-leading road coverage shows you the access routes to even the most remote trailheads. Easy-to-read topographic maps with contours, relief and shading show you changes in elevation along a trail and we include natural and man-made features such as creeks, wetlands, campsites and viewpoints. Mapbooks, GPS Maps, the Backroad Navigator app and our BRMB Canada Web Map include written descriptions of trails complete with trail distances, directions to trailhead, elevation gain, highlights, difficulty and more. For digital products, these trails are georeferenced and searchable, while our Mapbooks contain an easy-to-use Adventure index to help you find the exact trail you are looking for.
