How our data is different

Most trail apps rely on user uploads, or scrape from third parties.
We do things the slow way: we hike every route before it goes into the planner.

  • 🥾 Routes hiked by us first - We don't publish a route until we've done it ourselves.
  • 📍 Every pin placed by hand - Huts, water, campsites, viewpoints, etc, no scrapping.
  • 🔄 Kept up to date - We keep checking all the information and make sure it is updated.

"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."
