Quick Thursday post today wondering what apps or websites you all utilize for hiking? I’ve always used AllTrails and find that the community of hikers usually post meaningful reviews about how strenuous hikes can be, parking situation, how crowded, etc. www.alltrails.com. If I just want to record an activity to see distance, pace, elevation change….then I find myself using Strava (https://www.strava.com/). I used this one often on new walks with the dogs to see how far we are going.
I also like that they both log your activity and it’s a fun way to go back years later and see what you’ve done.
Any other good apps or places to go for this? My daughter and I are still going to hike Shenandoah National Park (https://www.nps.gov/shen/index.htm) in a couple weeks so any additional information would be great. Thanks!
This picture is one of the first “real” hikes Emily and I completed together. This was from the Badlands in South Dakota was back in 2018.
