Reliable Japanese Hiking Apps W/ GPX Export Feature

Hello all,

Currently to plan my hikes I have been using YAMAP which is pretty good since the Japanese community is active there but my only caveat with it is that I cannot export the course data unless I export someone else’s activity data that they shared in YAMAP which I dont like since some people take detours and etc. I am wondering if there are other Japan mainly hiking apps that support exploring the course gpx data.

Alltrail kinda works in Japan but I have noticed its trail maps can be pretty inaccurate at least in the area that I live.
Thank you in advance.

  1. I’ve always used 山と高原. It’s fine for standard routes in major hiking areas and allows exporting of gpx files. There’s very little data for out of the way hills, though.

    Edit: It’s also incredibly useful for route planning.
