Off-road adventure by compass

Ride more green lanes. Find your own way there.

Tell Wayward how far you want to ride and roughly where to head. It strings together as many legal off-road byways as it can to fill your distance — then points you to the next one with a single compass arrow. No turn-by-turn nagging. Getting there is the adventure.

Still got the riding buzz?

Back from a big riding weekend? Don't let the buzz fade.

Festival season fills your feed with green-lane runs and trail riding — then the weekend ends and the buzz fades. It doesn't have to. Wayward finds legal green lanes near you and chains them into a full day's ride, every weekend — no event ticket, no mates who "know a route", no map to bury your head in. Keep the adventure going.

How it works

Just enough to keep the adventure alive — and none of the stuff that does the thinking for you.

Pick your distance

From a quick blast to a 150-mile big day out. Loop or one-way, and which way to head.

Get a route

Wayward chains together legal byways to fill it, and shows you the whole plan up front.

Follow the arrow

One big compass arrow points to the next turn, then the next lane. You bridge the gaps.

Works offline

The ride is planned up front, so the compass keeps guiding you deep in the countryside.

Two ways to ride

Pick your level of help — both keep you looking at the world, not a screen.

Adventure compass mode
Adventure

Compass, no map

A minimalist arrow points you to the next turn, then the next lane — like a dedicated handlebar compass. No map to stare at. Fully offline once planned.

Guided map mode
Guided

A map to the next lane

Prefer a little more help? A live map shows where you are and the way to the next byway, with your whole route drawn out.

Route preview with map

See the whole ride first

Every route is laid out before you set off — off-road lanes in green, the linking road sections dashed, and an honest breakdown of how much is genuinely off-road.

  • Total distance, off-road distance & percentage
  • Standard or satellite imagery — spot the actual track on the ground
  • Not feeling it? Shuffle for a completely different route
  • Legal byways only, or add unchecked byways — your call

Built for your handlebars

Mounted on the bike? Turn it sideways. The ride screen lays out wide — big arrow, big numbers, glanceable at speed.

Landscape ride view

Put the map away. It's navigation stripped back to the part that makes you feel something — an antidote to a world where everything's done for you. Look up. Get a little lost. Remember the ride.

Questions

The honest answers before you ride.

Is it legal to ride these lanes?

Wayward shows byways open to the public, but it is not a guide to where motor vehicles are permitted. The default mode plans over byways open to all traffic; the optional "unchecked byways" setting adds lanes that are unverified — many of which are recorded in public map data as restricted for motor vehicles. Lanes can also be seasonal or have orders against them. The data is indicative only — you are always responsible for confirming a route is legal, open and safe before you ride it.

Where does Wayward work?

England & Wales, with over 26,000 byways and tracks mapped from open data. We're expanding coverage as the beta grows.

Do I need a phone signal out there?

No. Your whole ride is planned before you set off, so the compass keeps pointing the way even with no bars deep in the hills. (Guided mode's map tiles do need a connection to load.)

What can I ride it on?

Road-legal off-road motorbikes and mountain bikes. Mount it on the bars in landscape, or keep it in a pocket and glance at the arrow.

When can I get it?

Wayward is in TestFlight beta now and launching on the App Store soon. Join the launch list and you'll be first to ride — at the locked-in beta price.

Important — please read

Wayward does not condone illegal riding. It's a tool for discovering off-road lanes — not a guide to where it's legal to ride, and not legal advice. Some byways have not been verified as legal for motor vehicles — the optional "unchecked byways" setting includes lanes recorded in public map data as restricted for motor vehicles — and many off-road routes prohibit them. The data is indicative only and may be incomplete or out of date. You alone are responsible for confirming a route is legal, open and safe before you ride it. Mount your phone and never handle it while riding — handheld phone use on the road is illegal in the UK. Provided "as is", with no warranty.
