Steal A Tree Trails: All Confirmed Trails, Speed Bonuses, and Costs
Every confirmed Steal A Tree trail with price and speed bonus — Grey at 1K, Green at 25K, Purple at 100K — plus which trail fits your progression stage.
Trails in Steal A Tree are bought from the Trail Shop and apply a flat speed multiplier — the fastest fix for runs that keep ending in a gnome tackle. Three trails are confirmed: the Grey Trail (1.5x Speed) for 1K cash, the Green Trail (2x Speed) for 25K cash, and the Purple Trail (2.5x Speed) for 100K cash.

Why trail speed matters, and which trail fits each stage
Gnomes are the hazard that can end a steal run: if one catches you mid-carry, you're knocked down and the sapling is gone. Speed — not skill — is the counter, because a higher speed stat lets you outrun a patrol instead of hoping it looks the other way. Trails apply a flat multiplier to that stat, so they're the quickest way to fix a run that keeps failing.
The progression rhythm is straightforward:
- Early game: Buy the Grey Trail at 1K cash immediately — it's the cheapest meaningful speed boost.
- Mid game: Once juice income is steady, upgrade to the Green Trail at 25K cash for 2x speed.
- Late game: The Purple Trail at 100K cash is the endgame option with the highest confirmed multiplier.
A simple rule from players' experience: if gnomes keep taking your saplings, buy speed. If your farm is full and the queue never stops, expand instead.
Trails alongside other speed sources
Trails are one of two speed systems. Running on the treadmill on your plot raises your speed stat passively — you stand on it while your trees produce juice in the background — and the treadmill itself is upgradeable (Wooden starting tier, Iron at 50,000 cash, Golden at 500,000 cash). Trails, by contrast, are a one-time flat multiplier purchase, so they deliver an immediate boost while treadmill tiers improve training efficiency over time. Both feed into the same speed stat; the source data doesn't specify an exact stacking formula between them.
