easily plan your multi-day hike

The first purpose-built, all-in-one planning app for multi-day hikers to create a personalized itinerary, organize accommodation, and confidently navigate their trip.

 

Planning a multi-day hike used to be difficult.

It involved extensive research - internet searches, map reviews, guidebooks and asking questions on forums - to gather up-to-date and relevant information. All these details were then consolidated, along with calculations and time estimates, to make sure the overall plan was achievable. Then came the accommodation booking part. Finding fully booked locations along your chain of dates would trigger a rejuggle of your entire itinerary. Frustating.

Our research shows that the planning process is the most frustrating part and takes hikers an average of 2-4 weeks to complete. 

We’ve built a new planning app to turn the planning process from painful, to enjoyable!
