Down2Camp · road trip planner

Plan the whole trip.
Watch the world turn green.

Build a day-by-day itinerary on a real map, with drive times measured on real roads — so an eleven-hour day tells you before it happens, not at midnight. Every country you stop in fills in on your own map of the world.

  • Real roads, not straight lines
  • Invite the crew by email
  • Still works off-grid

Long driving day — consider splitting it

World discovered

The map fills in behind you.

Every stop that resolves to a coordinate is tested against real country borders — the same polygons the trip map draws. Stand somewhere and it turns green. Nothing to tick off and nothing to claim: the percentage only ever counts ground you actually covered.

What a straight line would tell youWhat DownToCamp tells you
Real roads

Drive times you can actually plan around.

Every leg is routed through OSRM on the real road network — the passes, the switchbacks, the long way round the fjord. No straight-line estimate wearing a fudge factor. Which means the day that quietly became an eleven-hour slog says so while you can still do something about it.

  • Move a stop and every affected leg re-routes — nothing goes stale.
  • More than five hours behind the wheel in a day gets flagged, right in the itinerary.
  • Every routed leg is cached, so the numbers are still there when the signal is not.
Your crew

An invitation, not a link that gets forwarded.

Everyone spending money and moving stops on a shared trip should be someone you actually invited. So the crew join by email and set a password when they accept — which also means the trip follows them to a new phone instead of living on one browser. Nothing to install.

Settle the date first
Ask which weeks work, let everyone answer yes, maybe or no, and turn the winning one into the trip. Maybe counts for half, because a week half the crew can manage beats one nobody can.
Invited by name
You send it to their address. That link works for that address only, and expires — it is not a key that gets forwarded around.
Argue in the plan
Comment and post photos on the trip or on one stop, so the case for the detour — and the picture of it — live next to the detour instead of scrolling away in a group chat.
Who brings what
Packing and todos with a name against each line. Who rides in which car and who sleeps in which tent are asked separately, because they are separate questions — and each car carries its own fuel cost.
Split the money
Log what you paid as you go, split it evenly or by the exact amount, and settle up in the fewest transfers. Tick a payment off once it is actually made.
Read-only for home
Family get a separate link they can pass around freely. They watch the plan; they cannot touch it.

Two payments clear the whole trip — the app works out the fewest.

The rest of it, quietly handled.

  • Places to stay

    Tent pitches, cabins, RV spots and spare rooms, listed by the people who own them. List yours and it shows up on the map too.

  • Campsites along the way

    Real camp sites, caravan spots and drinking water pulled straight from OpenStreetMap around the route you drew.

  • Break the drive somewhere worth it

    Every leg between two stops asks what is on it. Pick what you are in the mood for first — castles, viewpoints, waterfalls, a nature reserve, somewhere to swim, lunch — then search only that, along the actual routed road rather than a circle on a map. Results arrive in the order you would drive past them, and adding one drops it into the plan between the two stops it sits between.

  • Somewhere to sleep, every night

    Every day of the plan asks the question the plan usually leaves out. Campsites, hotels, hostels and huts within 25km of wherever that day actually ends — plus, across 28 European jurisdictions, whether wild camping is legal there, on what conditions, and whether the answer for a tent differs from one for a van. Each carries its source, that source’s standing, and the date it was read; countries we have not researched say so instead of guessing.

  • Weather per day

    An Open-Meteo forecast lined up against each day of the itinerary, so you can shuffle the wet one before you leave.

  • What actually happened

    The moment a trip goes on the road, every stop grows a camera button — rear camera, one tap, caption optional. The record of a place sits on the place, not in a separate diary that made you pick the day by hand. Crew only; the read-only link carries the plan, not the pictures.

  • And then it plays itself back

    Mark a trip done and it becomes something to watch: the route drawing itself across the map, stop by stop, with your photos, captions and the things people said where they said them. The soundtrack is synthesised in the browser rather than licensed from anyone, so it is quiet, endless and nobody owns it.

  • What the fuel will cost

    Give each van its litres per 100km and one price, and the real routed distance turns into a number. Labelled an estimate, and kept out of the split — it is not money anyone has handed over.

  • GPX export

    Take the finished route out to a sat-nav, a watch or an offline map app. It is your route, so you can leave with it.

  • Offline-tolerant

    Signal dies in the places worth driving to. Lose it and the trip keeps showing the last good data instead of an error page.

  • AI packing list, if you want it

    Generate one from the forecast and the trip in a click — or ignore it entirely. Nothing here needs the AI to work.

The road is not going to plan itself.

Start from nothing or start from a preset. Either way your crew can be in it in the time it takes to paste a link.
