OutdoorCosmos: Trails & Map

A map, a tour planner and a recorder for the outdoors — with offline maps and nature-protection rules where they apply. FIND PLACES Swimming spots, viewpoints, hiking trails, cycling routes and barbecue areas on one map. Filter by activity, kid-friendly, free or well-rated. Every place carries photos, community reviews and — where a protected area is involved — the rules that apply there. PLAN A TOUR Drop waypoints, the route is computed live (hiking, road bike, trekking bike, mountain bike). Elevation profile, walking time per DIN 33466 with break time listed separately, GPX export. Once you have recorded enough, the time estimate uses your own pace rather than a table. ON THE WAY Recording with turn instructions and voice, with profiles for walking, running and cycling. If you leave the route it says so once, not repeatedly. "Take me back to the start" works with no signal at all — if routing cannot be reached it retraces your own recorded track. OFFLINE Two ways: download a ready-made region package, or just the corridor along your route — usually a few megabytes instead of a gigabyte. Both work in airplane mode. If there is no map for the spot you are standing on, the app says so instead of showing an empty green field. SAFETY Daylight is computed, not fetched: the app knows civil dusk for your starting point and works out what time the tour ends. Difficulty comes from two sources shown separately — the SAC hiking scale where it has been surveyed, and gradients measured from the elevation profile. What nobody surveyed is labelled as unsurveyed, never as easy. Optionally leave a trip plan: a time and a contact. Run 30 minutes past it and a mail goes out with your link. Finishing the recording checks you back in automatically. YOUR PROGRESS Places visited, countries uncovered, variety of activities. Deliberately no distance, speed or streak goals: roughly 90% of fatal hiking accidents are falls, and the descent is about twice as deadly as the climb. An app that pays you for going further or faster pushes in exactly that direction. PRIVACY No ads. Crash reports are on and can be switched off; usage analytics is off and has to be switched on. Neither transmits coordinates. Recordings stay on the device. You can delete your account and your data from inside the app. 9 languages, maps for Europe. Runs on Android 8 and up.
