What it solves

  • 01 · Trail Studio

    The trail I want doesn’t fit the time I have.

    Draw a route on the map and Wildheart snaps it to the trails, with the distance and climb. Or pick a trail and set the distance you have, for a hike or a training run, out and back or point to point.

    The route comes out at the distance you set.

  • 02 · The brief

    I don’t know what I’m walking into.

    Open a trail, set the distance, and the brief puts it on one page before you go: how long it takes, whether you finish before sunset, the best weather window, water crossings, and how much water to carry. On trails you can run, switch it to trail run and the numbers follow.

    When something is uncertain, the brief says so.

  • 03 · On the trail

    Out there, I’m not sure I’m on track or what’s ahead.

    Ask how much climbing is left or whether the dog can swim here, and the answer comes back with where it came from. Wildheart tracks the hike or run and gives you a heads-up if you wander off the route. When you finish, the recap keeps it.

    It tells you before you’ve gone far.

  • 04 · The map

    I don’t know which trails are near me.

    The Wildheart map over Austin at night, with trails traced in green and orange across the city and a search bar that reads Find an adventure.

    Open the app and the trails around you are already on the map. Search by name, or ask for what you want, like a trail run near you.

    Pick one and go.

Who makes this

Hi, I’m Kyle.

Nature, the outdoors, van life, dogs… I love it all. I’m an avid hiker, runner and have done races and ultras and realize how fun it is to go on an adventure.

Wildheart is a passion project. I built it out of curiosity and a love of nature, and it’s a work in progress. It was built to solve for many of the problems I face when planning hikes and trail runs.

I want it to get you out there. Have fun, see some nature, push yourself a little.

It’s just me doing this, so be gracious. Send me anything that’s broken, or any idea you’ve got. I read all of it.
