Backtrekker is an AI-powered backcountry trip planner. Describe a trip anywhere in the world and it builds a multi-day itinerary with real trails, live weather, permit information, and an interactive 3D map.
Trail and map data comes from OpenStreetMap contributors, weather from Open-Meteo, maps from Mapbox, and itineraries are drafted with Claude by Anthropic. Hikers also improve the trail database by uploading their own GPX recordings and photos.
Backtrekker is a planning aid, not a replacement for official maps, local knowledge, or good judgment. Read the Terms of Service before you head out.
