"This was very helpful while I was trying to figure out each stop. I really like that I can change the distance to miles and feet. I also love that it shows water availability, transportation, and markets along the way. This is very helpful. This is a very user friendly site!"

"The app is a pleasure to use. You can tell it was created by hikers because it has everything you need to plan a trek. Hike Planner saved me a lot of time and stress because it shows the availability of most mountain huts. Thanks to that, I was able to plan my trek much faster."
