About

Language available: French, Chinese (Simplified), English, Italian, Japanese, Germany, Nederland, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Polish, Portuguese, Slovak. HikingWay V3.x App for Vivoactive 3 Music and 3 LTE, 4 and 4S, Venu, Venu Sq and Music, MARQ, Star wars and Marvel Series and Fenix 6/6S/6X Pro is dedicated for Trail, Running or Hiking in mountain, forest, everywhere there is a GPS signal. In real time, it’s reported on the screen: the distance (km or mile), the average/current speed or pace (km or mile by hour, or min:sec by km or mile), the time elapsed (h:min:sec), Heart Rate value (bpm) and some other information about the hiking as: compass, arrow indicator for the initial position direction, current time, altitude and height difference (positive and negative cumulated), shortest distance to the initial position and duration with your average speed to come back to initial position. It is also possible to save and load a position (for example your home position). During the trail/hiking, it is possible to consult the map on your watch with zoom, rotation and translation functionalities (according watches type). When the Heart Rate monitor is turned on, the heart rate value is reported on the screen in real time. A HR threshold can be adjusted; a periodical vibration warning (and a heart warning on screen) is activated as long as the heart rate is higher than the threshold. For Night Runner, it’s possible to keep screen light activated during the run. Your hiking/running session can be stored with FIT format compatible for Garmin Connect IQ (need to create a Garmin Connect account); then, it’s possible to have look on map and session information on your Garmin Connect IQ page. Some command and recommendations: for tactile watches, swiping left on screen to switch data displayed, swipe right for exit; for no tactile ones, use pushbutton to switch data displayed. Press Start to launch your hiking follow-up. Refer to User’s manual. For correct operating of compass and “back to Home” indicator, it’s necessary to be in movement.
