PathAway GPS 4: Versatile GPS Tracking & Navigational Solution
"PathAway is the all-purpose software for GPS. PathAway provides affordable navigational support for aviation, boating, automobile (on and off-road), hiking, cycling, touring, rally racing, motorcycle touring, ballooning, scuba diving, fishing, hunting, paragliding, mountain climbing, ultra-light flying, canoeing, snowmobiling, athletic training, outdoor education, geocaching, mapping/GIS, mining, military training, surveying, site inspection, telematics, field data collection, security, search and rescue or any application where location is important. If you get out and go places, PathAway is the companion to take with you."
In short, this highly versatile GPS software solution will allow you to keep track of your routes regardless of where you go using any map you like, such as those found via mapping web sites, CD-ROM, scanned, or digitally photographed (PathAway provides a map import tool to assist in this process). While I'd imagine that the most frequent use case will be for off-road adventurers who just want to be able to backtrack to their starting point, there are a number of other cool features provided, including the ability to create waypoints marking your desired path ahead of time and then having PathAway alert you with customizable sounds when you get close to a one of your points or if you've strayed too far away from your path. PathAway GPS 4 can be registered here for $59.95 ($29.95 for previous owners looking to upgrade) and trial download is available.

maybe it is great application but I would need application + maps.
Not just application. Instead of transferring maps which are 'click away'
I would rather spend more time hiking

I would liken this more to something like GPS Tuner than to iNavigator or Mapopolis.
