We've Just Bagged our First Munro!

Working in partnership with the National Trust for Scotland, ZolkC are developing a series of smartphone apps for some of the Trust's premier countryside locations.
The first of these is for Ben Lomond - a Munro that overlooks the stunning Loch Lomond. The app will provide a map of the trail, and automatically trigger stories of history, folklore, and flora & fauna interpretation, as well as providing direct links for updates on the local weather.
Also, using our ViewCam functionality, the walker will be able to identify specific sites of interest in the surrounding landscape as they make their way up the Ben, including the 30+ peaks and sites of interest that can be viewed from its summit.
The app will engage with visitors pre-visit, during and post visit through links to social media. It will also promote the National Trust for Scotland in its conservation and land-management work and be a key part of their countryside marketing initiative.
The Ben Lomond Trail Companion will be available to download from the Android Market and Apple App Store from May 2012
