We are looking for beta testers for our new Outdoor Aficionados app
The personal hiking and safety assistant for outdoor enthusiasts!
Discover the new generation application for planning and going out in kind.
How is working
Marmots are social animals and are often found in large groups. They play an important role in their ecosystems and provide a unique glimpse into the complex and interrelated systems that make up the natural world. Marmots are known for their ability to whistle loudly to signal the presence of danger.
Download the App
Join the community of « marmots » and enjoy the outdoors! One life! Enjoy it!
Set-up
To make the application my travel companion!
Joining a hike
You can organize a hike for you (solo hike) or with your friends or simply you can join one open and make new friends.
On the trail
I have a visualization of the whole hike, the other members and the dangers spotted on the way!
Hazard alert
I can visualize hazards on the way ( broken bridge, wild animal, avalanche, fire, etc) and report if I encounter so others can hike safely
I act
SOS signals are visible in a 15 km radius around me. I can go help if I am around. I can also send a distress alarm if I need it, the other marmots are going to see it.
