\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhen can I start travelling on a track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

The recommendations as to when which track is possible is one of those things.
Apart from ACT UK, all the tracks go up into the mountains and there can still be snow there in April or even October.
If the amount of snow is too high, the sections are often closed on site…then you have to take a diversion and get back on the track at a suitable point…
Regardless of the month, rain is also often a problem…if it rains too long and too heavily, dry paths quickly turn into muddy tracks…please always be prepared for the weather to throw a spanner in the works. We keep hearing from members who have travelled in the first or last quarter of the year and had no problems, but we ourselves say roughly from April to October. Always under the premise of following the local weather conditions.<\/p>

The weather just does what it wants.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat is an ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

Adventure Country Tracks are tracks exploring the last available adventure routes in Europe and targeted for the dual sport\/adventure motorbike models available in the market. The tracks are a mix of on-road and off-road segments and they are public and legal roads.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHow many days I need to travel an ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

The tracks length is normally from 1000km to 1400km. They are designed to be doable in a 5 day trip. Nevertheless\u00a0 <\/span>you can decide to take longer as you may want to stay more time in specific places. We do not recommend doing it in less days as it can compromise safety due to speed or fatigue.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I need a GPS device to travel an ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

The GPX file is the fundamental element to be able to navigate throught the track. The GPX file contains a track and waypoints. You will need a GPS unit or mobile phone with software capable of navigating using the GPX file and the track inside.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHow can I process the GPX track in the navigation device or app?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t
We recommend using a computer for downloading the track. The track is a gpx file that must first be decompressed after downloading. The gpx file (not the zip file) can then be loaded onto the GPS device. Please make absolutely sure that the track is NOT imported as a route, but as a track\/GPX in the appropriate folder. Due to the large number of navigation devices and apps and their special features, we cannot describe the exact procedure. \u00a0We can recommend Osmand App for IOS, Locus Maps Pro for Android and Garmin devices as GPS navigation devices.\u00a0<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe tracks can only be travelled in the direction specified in the .GPX file?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

We recommend that the tracks are travelled in the direction we define. Each track is scouted that way. A specific segment may be easy to do in the direction we specify but have a higher degree of difficulty if done in the opposite direction (e.g.: descent vs climb). We know some persons have done it but our official reccommendation is to follow the direction define for the track.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I need permission to travel in an ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

No. All roads are public and legal. We nevertheless strongly recommend everybody to read our code of conduct before entering any ACT track.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCan I use the ACT Track for commercial use ?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

No you can not use the ACT Track commercially unless you have a agreement in place with the ACT e.V. If you are planning any sort of commercial activity with or on the track please reach out to the ACT Team by email: Info@adventurecountrytracks.com<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I have mobile phone connectivity during the track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

An ACT track explores some remote areas of the countries and it may occur that in a specific region, cell phone coverage is limited. Nevertheless, for the great majority of all the tracks, you will have connectivity.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhere can I stay overnight during the track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

The end of the track segment of each day always offers different possibilities for overnight. From hotels to camping. We especially define the end of each day taking this into consideration.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat is the expertize level required for an ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

For each track we define the track difficulty level. This is done based on our experience and understanding of what is required for each type of track. Nevertheless, even in a track defined as EASY, it is never for a rider who has no experience off-road nor for a rider with only limited experience. Your personal access to your capabilities and experience is fundamental.<\/p>

Some tracks are classified as suitable for beginners with off-road skills. In our understanding, this means that you should have completed at least two full-day off-road training courses at a professional training school, one of which should have been an advanced training. Additionally, your off-road experience should go beyond riding on gravel roads.<\/p>

Please note that the difficulty level of the track can vary significantly due to changing weather conditions.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I need to use additional fuel reservoirs to be able to complete a track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

The tracks are defined in a way that there will always be fuel available and therefore doable for a normal dual sport\/adventure motorcycle model with a minimum of 15 liters capacity fuel tank. It is mandatory thay you start each day with the fuel tank full or almost full.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCan I ride a track with a passenger on my bike?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

We do not recommend this mode of travelling.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo GPX tracks have a direction?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

GPX tracks can be used in either direction.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do I get turn-by-turn directions using the ACT tracks?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

GPX tracks are a static line to follow and aren\u2019t designed to be turn-by-turn.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCan I use Google Maps on my phone to display and navigate an ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

There are some different options for backcountry navigation using a smartphone. Google Maps is not well suited for this purpose as it\u2019s not designed to work with gpx tracks and waypoints that we use for the ACT tracks.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat is the difference between a Waypoint, Track and a Route?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

Waypoints, or Points-of-interest (POI), are a static place such as a viewpoint, gas station, or hotel. Tracks are a static line on a map \u2013 as your GPS position moves the idea is to follow this line. Routes are dynamically calculated directions to connect a starting and ending point \u2013 they can change as you go. We provide our GPX file with a track inside and some POI’s.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCan I take a 4x4 support vehicle into the track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

All tracks are doable by a 4×4 vehicle.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCan I ride an ACT track alone or do I need a group?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

An ACT track explores some remote areas of the countries and unexpected things can happen even in an easy part of a track. We strongly suggest that an ACT track should always be ridden in a group. Even more important when facing some of the challenges that are in some segments of the tracks and where the support of other persons may be fundamental.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I need to travel the track according to the days split defined by ACT?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

No. You can define your own schedule and distance to be travelled each day. We define the days according to our understanding of a well balanced division of distance per day (taking into consideration the difficulty of each day, off-road percentage, etc). Also making sure that the defined stopping location is providing overnight facilities (hotels and\/or camping), restaurants and fuel stations. You can nevertheless define your own stopping location for each day.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat to do if I encounter a gate in the track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

ACT tracks are defined using public legal roads but you may find gates due to livestock. The rule is to leave the gate as you\u2019ve found it.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIs a track in a specific country always the same?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

No. We keep monitoring changes that occur to the track (e.g.: gates, forbidden parts, etc) and we update the GPX files. So before going into your trip, always make sure you download the latest version of the track from our website.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat tires should I use in a ACT track?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our tracks are normally at least 50% off-road. Some tracks have higher degree of difficulty than others. Nevertheless, all off-road segments can have their properties changes with rain, mud, snow, etc. So we definitely recommend a 50\/50 tire from one of the many quality options available in the market.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
