A map and a reference to all the accommodations you did not know existed

Features & Capabilities

Shelter is a uniquely designed Chrome extension that serves as a comprehensive map and reference guide to Denmark's primitive shelters—accommodations providing protection from the elements with three closed sides. Many of these shelters are free to use, some even equipped with running water and toilets, and often accompanied by primitive tent areas where travelers can meet locals.

This extension allows users to effortlessly locate shelters nearby, filter for amenities like bookable seats, and contribute by adding comments or reporting facility updates. Although primarily in Danish, Shelter's worldwide availability aims to expand with future translations. Sponsored by the North and 55° Friluftsrådet, it's an essential tool for outdoor enthusiasts wanting to discover and share Denmark’s hidden accommodation gems.

Shelter is a well-liked and useful app for locating shelters, primarily in Denmark, praised for helping cycle tourists and outdoor enthusiasts find flexible sleep spots. However, users frequently note its limitation of signing in only with Google accounts and lack of English language support, which restricts accessibility for visitors. Some find the interface unintuitive, especially when accessing detailed shelter info, and report incomplete map data or missing navigation features, highlighting areas for improvement.

I loved this app for shelters in Denmark, it's just great. Exact locations, just look out for the ones with pictures, the rest try to compare with google earth.
