MILE 02 How to choose

Pick the app for the job

Need a reservation

Hipcamp books private land. Federal campsites are still reserved on Recreation.gov. Landgogh does not hold that inventory.

Need a free campsite offline

FreeRoam is the offline dispersed-camping map. Landgogh stays online and adds the wider place list.

Need the people too

Landgogh and Sekr both lean social. Landgogh keeps The Trail next to a free places map of public land.

See you on the trail.

Browse the places map for free. Join when you want The Trail, trips, and the rest.
