Checked 5 October 2026 from each app’s own pages and recent reviews (sources below). Prices are the standard yearly prices in the currency the source used; they vary by country and change often. “—” means we found no such feature. Traverse’s full plan details are on the pricing page.
Pick the one that fits how you go out.
Mountain terrain and safety, free: a slope-angle layer, trip plans that alert your contact and then a verified rescue team if you are overdue, and an SOS that only says what it knows. Strongest in the Western Balkans today.
The biggest catalogue of trails with reviews and photos in many countries, especially North America. Good for finding a well-known day hike.
Route planning for hiking and cycling across Europe, with surface types and community highlights. One-off map packs if you dislike subscriptions.
Training and the social feed for runners and cyclists, with segments and detailed stats. Its terrain layers came over from FATMAP.
