Shelter vs ShelterMap

SHELTER, noun En shelter er et primitivt overnatningssted med ly for regn og vejrlig - et halvtag med tre lukkede sider. Der findes i Danmark flere hundrede af denne slags. Med al sandsynlighed ligger der også en tæt på dig, og dine bedste venner. Nogle sheltere er helt nye, nogle er ti år gamle, nogle findes med rindende vand og toilet. Fælles for dem er, at størstedelen er gratis at benytte. Langs og omkring mange af disse, findes også primitive teltområder, der giver mulighed for at møde gæstfrie danskere for en skilling, svarende til en pose chips. Men hvorfor bruger du dem så ikke noget mere? Mangler du noget at finde dem med? Et kort af en art? Et opslagsværk med alle nødvendige informationer? Værsgo. // Sponsoreret af 55°Nord samt Friluftsrådet //

Where will I sleep tonight? Where can I find water? And does this shelter really live up to what the map promises? If you travel by bike or on foot, you know these questions. ShelterMap helps. On the map you'll find shelters and huts, but also water points, campsites and many other places that make a difference along the way. Sometimes it's a rest area with a table, sometimes a farm shop or an apple tree by the roadside. What makes ShelterMap special are the people behind it. Many spots were added by people who were actually there, others come from open data sources and are gradually completed by the community. The photos come from someone who pitched their tent in exactly that place. So do the ratings. That way you get an honest picture before you take the detour. You can see what facilities there are, whether the place costs anything and how good the mobile reception is. With Apple Look Around you can even have a look around beforehand. Once you've arrived, you check in. That way you keep track of everywhere you've been and collect small achievements along the way. Spots you want to remember go into your own collections. Handy for planning a tour, but also for your favourite places nearby. And if you know a place that's still missing, just add it. It only takes a moment, and you take the photos directly with the camera. We take a quick look at every new spot before it appears on the map, so everyone can rely on it. ShelterMap is available in German, English, Danish, Norwegian and Swedish. Good to have you here. Safe travels!
