Relatively new to hiking and looking for any good long-distance hiking trails in Florida (preferably Central or North-Central FL) I can hit once I’ve got more experience under my belt. I plan on working my way up to eventually hiking the Appalachian but I still have a long way to go. Looking for trails I can use as a stepping stone between more beginner trails and longer-distance endurance trails like the AT. Any suggestions or advice for my journey is heavily appreciated!

Me and my partner has been doing long-distance hikes for a while now, like Haute Route, Alta via 1, etc, and we always missed a place where we could put together all the information and content we produce from our hikes, where we could mix editorial content (photos, videos, text) with interactive elements (maps, chart).

So we've been working on this platform, designed and coded by us, where we have all these features we wish the existing tools would have.

I'd like to share with the hiking community and ask for some feedbacks now. We put a lot of work on it and would love to hear from you if you find it useful or miss anything that would be helpful when planning your next hike.

So I’m looking for an app that will record my hiking trail. It’s on private property so there’s no trail map online. I also want it to record the elevation changes. Is there any app like that?

So this is kinda urgent, I've read about 3 days of Alta via 1 and suddenly remembered I need to return from Refugio Lagazuoi back to the car at lago di Brais. From Google maps I didn't find any way, does anyone know how? Thanks!

Hi,

kind of a noob question. where can I access maps without all the bloatware? or at least a free app?
