The Wapp – hiking app
Digital guidance for hikers across Iceland
The Wapp – hiking app offers a wide range of GPS‑based trail descriptions across Iceland, with information on place names, stories, nature and the environment. All routes are built on
Samsýn’s mapping system and can be downloaded to your phone for use offline, ensuring safety and access anywhere in the country.
Trail descriptions with maps, photos and practical details
Each trail description includes maps, photographs and clear information on access, seasonal conditions, parking and public toilets. Any hazards or special safety considerations are clearly marked so users can prepare well and travel safely.
Routes marked as guided include information points highlighting wildlife, geology, place names and historical sites. In this way, The Wapp – hiking app combines outdoor activity, learning and safe navigation in one place.
Diverse hiking routes for everyone
The Wapp offers hundreds of routes of varying length and difficulty, from short family‑friendly walks to demanding mountain hikes. The routes suit both locals and visitors who want to explore Icelandic nature on their own terms.
Safety and accessibility first
Because the trail descriptions are available offline, they can be followed anywhere in Iceland, even in remote areas. This increases safety and makes the app a reliable companion for anyone who wants to enjoy outdoor experiences in a safe and informative way.
