Sentieri Appennino

Sentieri Appennino is a dedicated Chrome extension for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers exploring the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. It provides free downloadable maps and hiking guides covering areas from Reggio Emilia to parts of Piacenza, extending from the Apuan Alps to the Mantua area, with new regions continually being added.

The extension integrates GPS functionality to show your current position on detailed maps and allows you to record your hiking routes. Users can add personalized notes and mark points of interest such as springs, botanical sites, and mushroom farms. Essential hiking facilities like refuges and bivouacs are also mapped with relevant information. Importantly, Sentieri Appennino operates offline, ensuring full functionality without internet access, perfect for remote mountain trails. It supports background GPS tracking even with the screen off, though this may reduce battery life during prolonged use.
