Routes Less Traveled is a route-planning and decision-support app built for people who want

more than basic turn-by-turn directions. It helps you build a route, inspect the world around it,
review elevation and timing, and package the plan into useful outputs.
What makes it different
Most route tools focus on the fastest or shortest path. Routes Less Traveled is built around context: terrain, fuel or camp assumptions, water, communications, topo coverage, hazard layers, food access, biomass, magnetic context, route profiles, and exportable route products.

Route modes
Driving: road-routed trips with waypoints, directions, fuel planning, and route outputs.
Offroad: manually drawn routes for backroads, trails, and unstructured terrain.
Walking: manually drawn routes with pace, time-window, camp, and navigation logic.
Tester call
We are looking for early testers who can use real route examples and give specific feedback. Good testers include road-trip planners, overlanders, hikers, emergency-preparedness users, map-heavy planners, outdoor users, and anyone willing to test route creation, layers, exports, and print workflows.
How to request tester access
