Trail Progress and Completion

Exploration1 min read·Updated today

How trail progress is calculated and what happens upon completion.

Progress on trails

itemID tracks your progress on each trail and shows you the percentage of waypoints you've visited.

Progress is calculated as a percentage:

Progress = (visited waypoints / total waypoints) × 100

Each visited waypoint is weighted equally, regardless of the distance between waypoints.

Progress is shown in several places:

You can take a break from a trail and return later — your progress is saved indefinitely. When you resume, you continue from where you left off.

When you've visited all waypoints on a trail (100%), the trail is considered complete. You receive:

Completed trails remain on your My IDs page and can be revisited, but progress is not reset.

Your trail progress is automatically updated when you check in at POIs. A progress indicator shows how far along you are.

Souvenirs can trigger a visit at a place on the trail — but only if the product is linked to that place.

When you visit all stops on a trail, you earn a completion badge and bonus points for your explorer profile.
