Bluerando vs Trek'Eau

Bluerando is the app for anyone who loves going uphill ... and downhill. Ski mountaineers, snowboarders, riders, runners and hikers. Plan your routes, check your successes and share them with friends.  PLAN THE BEST ROUTE FOR YOUR HIKE Plot your route by choosing your favorite map from the many available. Including Swiss Federal Institute maps, the best in the world, IGN France maps, or USGS National Map. You can draw your route on the Bluerando Portal maps, or search among those shared by other users, directly on the app. RECORD YOUR ACTIVITY During your hike, check your track on the map and see if it matches your planned route. Check the location of your fellow hikers, directly on the screen of your phone. If needed, send your location via email or text message. Connect Bluerando to your heart rate monitor and keep track of your beats. AVALANCHE BULLETINS. If your activity takes place in a snowy environment, assess the environmental risks well. Bluerando helps you by showing you with one click all the avalanche bulletins available for the area in which you are moving. Currently, we have available the AINEVA, Meteomont and SLF/WhiteRisk bulletins. Thus, we cover all of Italy and Switzerland, and the surrounding areas. We are working relentlessly to extend coverage to other areas. APPLE WATCH With a glance at the dial of your Apple Watch check your time, pulse, speed, elevation gain... SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE At the end of the trip, tell about your experience. Write a short report telling about your feelings and the conditions you encountered. They may come in handy for those who are planning a hike in the area. Save and share your trail as a route so it can be found and used by others, or yourself, when they plan a new activity. CONTRIBUTE TO EVERYONE'S SAFETY Use the new Observe & Report feature, take some photos, describe the event or situation you witnessed. In particular, photograph and share signs of avalanches and detachments. The phone will take care of locating the report and record other important elements, such as air temperature. All this information, strictly anonymous of course, will go into a database shared with those agencies that have made and will make requests for it. In particular, with those who process avalanche bulletins on a daily basis for the benefit of us all. This is valuable information for them, to help verify forecasts and constantly improve the models they use. Bluerando has set itself the goal of actively contributing to spreading a culture of conscious frequentation of the mountains, especially in its beautiful winter guise. For this reason, we have introduced the new features: the consultation of avalanche bulletins directly in the App and, most importantly, the "Observe and Report" function.

Trek’eau è un’iniziativa che mira a valorizzare il trekking e a promuovere il turismo sostenibile nell’area del Parco del Mont Avic, della Valle di Champorcher e del Forte di Bard. Il progetto mira a favorire la conoscenza diretta della cultura, delle tradizioni e delle comunità locali, nonché dei contesti naturalistici di grande interesse, offrendo un’esperienza autentica. Il nome Trek’eau è un gioco di parole tra trekking e acqua (eau in francese), perché questo territorio è ricco di corsi d’acqua: decine di laghi da ammirare e i due torrenti, il Chalamy e l’Ayasse, che hanno creato paesaggi di grande bellezza. L’iniziativa è stata finanziata con fondi FOSMIT dalla Regione Autonoma Valle d’Aosta e dai Comuni di Champdepraz, Champorcher, Pontboset, Hône e Bard. Collaborano al progetto anche il Forte di Bard e il Parco naturale Mont Avic.
