Frequently Asked Questions

What is Local Trails?

Local Trails creates interactive digital trails and maps that encourage people to explore towns, neighbourhoods, and events while supporting local businesses. Our trails are designed to increase footfall, engagement, and community participation.

How do Local Trails work?

Local Trails use mobile-friendly digital maps accessed via QR codes or links. Users follow a trail on their phone, visit participating locations, unlock offers or clues, and sometimes enter prize draws — all without downloading an app.

Who are Local Trails designed for?

Local Trails are ideal for independent businesses, local communities, town centres, BIDs, event organisers, and festivals. Anyone looking to promote local discovery and boost engagement can benefit.

Do businesses need special equipment to join a Local Trail?

No special equipment is required. Businesses simply display a QR code or take part in simple digital check-ins that work on any smartphone.

Can Local Trails be customised for events or seasons?

Yes. Local Trails can be fully customised for seasonal campaigns like Christmas or Easter, as well as food trails, brand activations, charity campaigns, festivals, and year-round local discovery.

How do I start or join a Local Trail?

Businesses can join existing trails or work with us to launch a new trail for their area or event. We help design and manage the trail to suit your goals and community.
