Trail Running & GPX: Ridge
Hiking GPS Tracker & Elevation
Free · In‑App Purchases
Your GPX trace becomes a guide: every grade in color, offline maps, an alert the moment you drift off-trail. Runs standalone on Apple Watch — no iPhone needed.
Bring your own GPX and run it with confidence. Ridge follows your
route in real time, warns you the moment you drift off-trail, and
turns every run into detailed elevation, pace and split data.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Import any GPX — from Apple Health, Strava or any file
2. Run or hike with live guidance on iPhone or Apple Watch
3. Relive every climb, kilometer and heartbeat afterwards
EVERYTHING YOU NEED ON THE TRAIL
• Live off-route alerts - even with your phone locked
• Grade-colored trace: see every climb before you hit it
• Full elevation profile: D+/D−, min/max, steepness
• Automatic splits, laps, pace & heart rate
• Course notes anchored to the kilometer, synced to your Watch
• Standalone Apple Watch app - leave your phone at home
• Live stats on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
• Atlas: every run you've recorded, on one map
WHO IT'S FOR
Trail runners, ultra runners, hikers - anyone who already has a
route as a GPX file. Ridge doesn't sell routes: it guides you on
yours.
Download Ridge and run your own trails with confidence.

Ratings & Reviews

• Share your runs — a clean sticker for your Instagram stories, or a poster with your trace, profile and numbers
• Weather at the trailhead — hour by hour, up to 8 days out, with a wind summary that flags strong gusts on exposed ground
• Offline maps, worldwide — outside France the offline map now comes from OpenTopoMap, with contours and hillshade anywhere on Earth. In France, IGN stays the map
• Folders inside folders — group your routes by region or trip, drag and drop included
• Get to the start — one tap opens Apple Maps, Waze or Google Maps with driving directions to the trailhead
• Folder editor refreshed — twice the colours, more icons
• Fixed: opening a route from a folder on the Apple Watch showed a blank screen
