Description
Collect unforgettable moments with your digital tour book! Record your hikes and outdoor activities in your personal summit log or tour diary. Whether you’re high up on a mountain or walking through gentle landscapes, you can record your activities at a total of 600,000 destinations worldwide using the hiking app, while collecting hiking badges at the same time.
Summit log or tour book
Record your hikes and outdoor activities as if in a personal mountain diary, hiking log, or tour book. When you reach your hiking destination, open the app and create an entry including text, photo, date, and time. The entry function also works offline using GPS.
Hiking badges
Collect points for official hiking badges in over 100 regions across Austria, Germany, and South Tyrol by logging your tours in your tour book. You'll also receive additional badges for using the app, which reward your achievements and motivate you to keep going. SummitLynx is your digital hiking and stamp passport.
The hiking badges and other badges will greatly increase your motivation for your next hike!
Hiking map & tour planning
Our digital hiking map features official tours in our partner regions and beyond. This makes it easier for you to plan your next hike or mountain tour. The hiking map also helps you find your way around the mountains.
mySOS emergency function
The mySOS emergency function is particularly valuable. You can enter the details of a contact person who will receive a text message if you do not return from your hike at the agreed time. Thanks to GPS tracking, mountain rescue services can find you more quickly in an emergency. This is ideal for anyone who wants to increase their safety in the mountains or who often goes hiking alone.
Statistics
Get an overview of your achievements with your personal mountain and hiking statistics. Which hiking destination do you visit most often? In which months did you make the most tour entries? How many hiking badges have you collected? Your personal statistics show you everything.
________

* You will find over 600,000 destinations worldwide in the hiking app, including peaks, mountain cabins, via ferrata routes, lakes, glaciers, mountain passes, and other points of interest. Your smartphone becomes a hut logbook, hiking book, and digital stamp passport.
