Silverlight: Social Hiking App

Go outdoors with the Silverlight trail journal. Keep track of your activities and those of your friends in real-time.


If you’re hiking, walking, running, or jogging, our route tracker project with GPS will help you find topographic maps, footpaths, trail forks, or any other kind of trail you need to explore the outdoors.

Workouts in the outdoors are even easier, with topographic maps letting you find the perfect spot. Find footpaths that match your preferences. Hike online with GPS or with an offline map. Explore topographic maps and find your perfect footpath with Silverlight. Check your results with a mile walker tracker. Silverlight connects you to all trails that suit every lifestyle, whether you’re hiking for the first time or are a big outdoor enthusiast. Find all trails and trailforks in our project, add to your trail journal, and share with friends!

Record your own trail journal, add waypoints, take pictures along while hiking, and upload them to your Silverlight account from your phone. Use an offline map or GPS.
