Embark on an exhilarating journey with Peak Hunters, the ultimate app for mountain enthusiasts! Designed to help you catch them all, this app features offline maps that ensure you can explore peaks even in remote areas. Whether you're scaling the majestic mountains of the Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia, the Faroe Islands, or the stunning regions of Sardinia and Sicily in Italy, and Madeira in Portugal, Peak Hunters is your perfect companion.
Peak Hunters boasts a continually expanding database of peaks across these supported locations. Leveraging your mobile phone's GPS, you can meticulously record your ascent to the summit and earn points based on the mountain's altitude and the challenge of the climb. You can also enrich your experience by adding personal ratings and photos to each peak you conquer. The app's user-friendly interface displays all peaks on a clear map, with options to filter them by country, mountain range, or proximity to your current location.
Understanding the challenges of mountain terrain, Peak Hunters allows you to download offline map data, ensuring uninterrupted navigation even in areas with weak signals. These maps, sourced from OpenStreetMaps, also highlight tourist routes, making your journey more informed and enjoyable. If you encounter a peak that's not yet in our database, simply long-press on the map to submit it. Once approved, the peak will join the collection, and you'll earn bonus points for your contribution.
Peak Hunters isn't just about climbing; it's about celebrating your achievements. The app offers an expanding set of statistics and collectible badges. As you gather these badges, particularly the rare ones, you'll receive special congratulations. Additionally, for each peak, you can access the latest weather forecast, aiding in your trip planning with up to 48-hour advance views.
A standout feature of Peak Hunters is its ability to recognize mountain tops. Simply point your phone towards a peak with the distance filter correctly set, and the app will identify it for you. You can also use the app in an anonymous mode, known as incognito mode, which offers the same functionality but without the ability to transfer profiles between devices or restore data if lost. We encourage you to test the app in incognito mode before transitioning to a registered profile for a full experience.
Peak Hunters is a labor of love, born from a passionate traveler's quest for an app to collect peaks with offline map capabilities. Free from ads and fees, it now also allows you to manually switch between dark and light modes from the user profile screen. If you spot any errors or have suggestions, feel free to reach out via the in-app form. We value your feedback to continually improve your experience.
Note that Peak Hunters is a standalone application, fully functional without any need for an accompanying website.
