Reach guests where they get their information - in the digital world

With us, you can influence the planning of your visitors at an early stage. You reach people in the planning and information phase, and thus you can exert influence so that the nature experiences are also nature-compatible.

Take back sovereignty over data and communication 

Communicate your official content and thus suppress content which is not in your interest or which is even forbidden. Nature conservation laws and the rules for the use of nature are integrated directly into the data structures. This means that all content on all channels on the web and in the apps is directly linked to the rules of your protected area. Prohibited content is removed or cannot be scheduled or published in the first place. Closed trails or zones are marked as such on the map and are thus excluded from tour planning and navigation.

Dynamic visitor guidance

In the platform analytics and on the heatmap you can see the utilization of your protected area and sensitive areas. Visitors are alerted to congestion and you can actively steer visitors with recommendations, QR codes and digital challenges - depending on which areas you want to relieve.

Outdoor enthusiasts become conservationists

Protected goods as well as flora, fauna and habitats are communicated in an informative way. In this way, prohibitions become comprehensible rules and nature users become nature protectors. Because you can only protect what you know.

Act sustainably

Direct data link with Digitize the Planet

On the Digitize the Planet platform, you enter the basic information for your protected area and the rules that apply in your protected area. This information is transferred directly to the Outdooractive platform via an API (interface) after you have connected your two accounts with the Connector.

Trail Management

As sovereign manager of your trail network, you get the proven tools of Trail Manager within your Pro Account. This allows you to digitally manage all your infrastructure and signage. You can raise deficiencies and manage them in a modern ticket system, assign tasks to people, and digitally track and document the completion of tasks. Walk-throughs and inspection tours are also documented digitally using the app. Tasks can be created directly from digital feedback from visitors. In a Pro+ account, the entire signage can be planned and managed.
