How to Cancel AllTrails+ (2026 Guide) — You Can Still Hike Without Paying $35.99/Year
Updated 2026-02-24 · 5 min read
AllTrails+ costs $35.99/year (billed annually) or $99.99/year for AllTrails+ Family. If you signed up for a weekend camping trip and haven't opened the app since, you're paying for offline maps you'll never download. Here's how to cancel — and what free hiking apps do the same thing.

Free Alternatives to AllTrails+

Caltopo — Free web-based topo maps. Print your own trail maps
The Seasonal Hiker Hack
If you only hike a few times a year, don't pay for AllTrails+ year-round:
Use free AllTrails for trail research and planning
Before a trip to an area without cell service, download the Google Maps offline area (free)
Screenshot the AllTrails trail map while you have service
If you need true offline hiking maps, subscribe for just one month before your trip, download everything, then cancel
Cost: ~$6/month × 2-3 trips = $12-18/year vs $36/year for AllTrails+
