I haven't found any way to take Navigon off road. As a matter of fact, I cannot even set up a route in advance since my home is 550 feet from the main road and Navigon will only give me the first instruction.
Have you tried Ariadne GPS??It's a fantastic program that I use often. I use it to mark points of interest around the lake where I vacation so I can figure out where i am when kayaking. It will give you straight line distances.
