OFF-ROAD RUGGEDNESS

Enjoy turn-by-turn trail navigation3 for traversing unpaved roads and trails using Adventure Roads and Trails map content comprised of OpenStreetMap™ and USFS Motor Vehicle Use Maps.

MAPS FOR OFF-ROAD

Tread features preloaded topographic maps of North and Central America and detailed street maps of North America. It also includes U.S. Forest Service Roads and trails and Motor Vehicle Use Maps (MVUM) for full-sized 4x4s, side-by-side, ATVs and motorcycles.

DOG TRACKING

Wirelessly pair Tread with select Garmin GPS dog systems (sold separately) to help track and retrieve your sporting dogs in the field. You’ll see markers for each dog within tracking range, overlaid right on the navigator’s map screen. Directional cues help you easily follow and locate each dog you’re tracking.

TRAVELING MUSIC

A built-in media player lets you easily control music loaded on your compatible smartphone on the navigator’s display — and hear your tunes through your helmet or headset (sold separately) enabled with BLUETOOTH technology.
