Directions between two or more points on the map

Anyone knows of an app for OSX and iOS where one can get directions between two or three or more points. (not a point and current location). In particular an app where one could create a multi-stop trip on OSX and then push it on to an iOS device where it would work as a map and as a navigator?

Tip: Apple Maps apps can't do this. They only allows one pin on the map and directions form current location to the map. Which is utterly useless for trip planning. And yes I know I can use Google Maps for that. But I want to stay away from Google.

Thank you all for your input.

I use gaigps.com for hiking, biking and it is really quite extensive. It is very feature rich and iPhone app and cloud functionality to sync maps, etc. You could also use for car trips.

you can get directions between two points neither of which is your location on the current ipad app. steps:

launch the app

drop a pin on one of the points

click on the right side of the baloon that opens over the pin

select directions to or from the location

a pane opens on the left side of the app

click into the start or end field that has "current location"

type in your desired start/end point and select the correct location from the drop down list that populates as you type

click on "route"

your route options will appear between the two points
