My favorite 3-D Skimap site, FATMAP, was bought and is now merging into the Strava platform.
It has the best FREE freeride maps and descriptions on the Internet - for almost all continents!
I believe that required subscription fees of $$$ might be coming even though the content is all user-generated. I hope they do not delete all the content!
Hey Chris,
Thank you for being a dedicated member of the FATMAP community. Since we started FATMAP 10 years ago, your outdoor adventures and expeditions have made FATMAP the world’s most powerful 3D map.
FATMAP and Strava joined forces in January 2023 to make outdoor experiences more accessible. Over the next few months, we’ll bring FATMAP’s 3D mapping and other features to Strava to create the world’s best platform for planning, navigating, and sharing outdoor adventures with the largest global community of active people.
As we move towards this joint mission, we will retire the FATMAP app and website on October 1, 2024. Until then, you’ll be able to use all the FATMAP features you currently enjoy. After October 1, the FATMAP app and website will no longer be available.
If you’d like to move your FATMAP routes to Strava or receive a copy of your FATMAP adventures, routes, waypoints, photos, and guidebooks, follow the steps outlined here before October 1st. After that date, your data will be deleted permanently.
You can join Strava for free or download the app on the App Store or Google Play. Once you migrate your FATMAP routes to Strava, they will be available as Saved Routes in your Profile on the mobile app and in your Dashboard on the Strava website. When you move your FATMAP routes to Strava, you consent to your data being transferred from FATMAP to Strava, which is headquartered in the U.S. For more information about your rights regarding your personal data on FATMAP, learn more here.
Most mapping features on Strava, including route creation, route discovery, offline downloads, flyover and personal heatmaps, require a Strava subscription. If you aren’t currently a Strava subscriber, redeem a free 60-day trial by December 31, 2024. You can cancel your subscription at any time during the trial and continue to use Strava for free when your trial ends.
We’d like to say thanks once again for the part you have played in FATMAP’s community. We look forward to seeing more of your adventures on Strava in the future!
