Who it is for
Off road drivers and overlanders planning a route who need difficulty, length, and vehicle fit before committing to a trail.
Search off-road trails across North America
Overview
onX Offroad searches off road trails across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. A search starts from a place and narrows by technical difficulty, the type of vehicle a trail suits, its length, and the season it is open.
Each result is a trail card carrying more than a summary: an elevation profile, a difficulty rating, photographs, recent trail reports, and notes on vehicle compatibility. The sample conversation looks up trails around Moab, then asks for progressively more detail on one named route.
The trail data comes from onX Offroad's own mapping, and the record describes finding and reading trails rather than any account or subscription function.

Trail reports and elevation profiles come back with the search result, so route selection does not require opening a separate map.
Availability
onX Maps ships this on both marketplaces: onX Offroad is listed in the Claude connectors directory and in the ChatGPT apps directory, under the same publisher domain.
Only 392 of the 3,150 products in this directory are listed in both marketplaces. One MCP server can serve both surfaces; what differs is each platform's listing and review process.

Claude listing
onX Offroad publishes 4 tools to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 17.2% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under the Other bucket publishes 10, so this one sits 6 tools below its bucket's median, 15th of 22.
It falls in the 4-6 tools band, which holds 16.2% of the Claude directory.
A direct call to the endpoint returned 4 tools, matching the 4 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07.
get_offroad_trail_listget_offroad_trailget_trail_details_by_idtrack_widget_eventonX Offroad publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.
https://www.onxmaps.com/claude/offroad/mcp onX Offroad is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.
In the publisher's words
onX Offroad brings 650,000+ miles of off-road trails directly into Claude. Search trails by location, technical difficulty, vehicle width, length, or seasonal conditions — and get interactive trail cards with ratings, photos, and real-time community condition reports. No onX account or app download required to get started. When you're ready to navigate, open any trail in the onX Offroad app for offline maps, turn-by-turn guidance, dispersed camping spots, and full trip planning tools.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from onX Offroad's public marketplace listings as they stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with onX Maps, and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
Node8 builds MCP servers end to end: deciding which tools are worth exposing, the authentication and permission model, the review submissions, and the onboarding that gets them used. One server serves ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot.
