The wiki for wilderness trails

Walking routes, written down with sources.

An encyclopedia of trails — distance, grade, water, permits, and access. Safety stays public. It is not a turn-by-turn planner.

What this is

  • Figures with sources

    Distance, elevation, and grade can carry a source and a last-verified date. If we do not know a number, it stays unknown.

  • Logistics other apps skip

    Water availability, permit warnings, and whether you can reach the trailhead without a car sit on the record.

  • Coverage outside the usual map

    The desk prioritizes Asia, the Global South, South America, Eastern Europe, and the Balkans, plus long-distance walking.

  • One grade, two scales

    Every trail shows SAC, YDS, and a plain-language label together. We do not publish a bare “moderate”.
