Over the last two months, I developed wanderer. It is a self-hosted alternative to sites like alltrails.com or in other words a self-hosted trail database. It started out more as a small hobby project to teach myself some new technologies but in the end, I decided to develop it into a fully-fledged application.

Core Features:

  • Manage your trails
  • Extensive map integration and visualization
  • Share trails with other people and explore theirs
  • Advanced filter and search functionality
  • Create custom lists to organize your trails further
  • Chique design with a dark and light theme
  • Fully mobile compatible

wanderer is completely open-source. You can find the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer

wanderer is still under active development so if you encounter any bugs/errors or have suggestions please let me know here or open an issue on GitHub.

    Strava has continued to enshittify the app to the point that I’m getting ads after every activity. Anyway, I decided to delete it after yesterday’s run and will keep an eye on this project. Thanks!

      Strava has ads now? I use NextDNS on my devices so assuming this is filtering out their ads.

        Much like Facebook, you can’t use a DNS blocker when the ads are being served by and from the website itself. There are some scripts you can run in the desktop browser that help a little but they’re usually not maintained, and Strava is constantly changing things, and they don’t work on the app.

      You mean after the price hike they also hiked the number of ads? I canceled when they hiked the price and managed to get it down to the old price a few months later, so I renewed for the personal heatmap. Looks like I’m definitely canceling again. I doubt they’ll give me the price break twice anyway.

      Baking ads into a timeline like Strava and some other apps do has to be the worst app trend ever.

        If you just like the personal heat map then checkout grrrmin_heatmap. It’s a pretty flexible python script for generating them.

          This appears to be what I’ve been looking for. I can’t wait to try it. Thanks for sharing.

      Strava lost me when they jacked up prices while simultaneously not providing a dark mode and continuing to neglect their paying users’ requests to acquire some semblance of control over their feed.

      I’m a mountain biker and I like to see my friends’ mountain bike rides. Instead my feed is jam-packed full of dog-walkers, Trainer Road and Zwift ads, and suggested/recommended “challenges” and “clubs”.

      I’m done. Yet another platform relegated to “post and ghost”.
