How it works
Nothing to start or stop. Just walk.
Your phone already counts your steps. Summit Steps gives them somewhere to go.
-
Pick a trek
Everest, Kilimanjaro, the Camino and more. Real distances, real altitudes, a date you’ll arrive.
-
Walk like normal
Steps sync from Apple Health or Health Connect. Your dog walk and your commute move you up the trail.
-
Unlock postcards
Every landmark you reach unlocks a postcard to keep, and a story card to share.
Try it
When would you get there?
Pick a trek and how much you walk on a normal day. We include one rest day a week, like a real expedition.

Built to keep you going

Rest days built in
One acclimatisation day a week keeps your streak safe, just like real trekkers resting at Namche.

Walk with friends
Start the same trek and see everyone on the trail. Nudge the stragglers, high-five the leaders.

See how many steps to the next landmark every time you unlock your phone.

Nudges that help
A tap on the shoulder when a postcard is within reach. Never a guilt-trip, at most twice a day.

Questions
Do I need a smartwatch?
No. Your phone already counts your steps. If you wear a watch that syncs to Apple Health or Health Connect, those steps count too.
Does it work on Android?
Yes. Summit Steps reads steps from Health Connect on Android and Apple Health on iPhone.
Is my health data private?
Your steps are read on your phone and stay there. There’s no account and we don’t upload your health data. The details are in the privacy policy.
What happens if I miss a day?
You get one rest day each week that protects your streak automatically. Real trekkers rest too.
Can I switch treks?
Any time. Your progress on each trek is saved, so you can come back and carry on where you left off.
How does the free trial work?
Summit Pro is free for 3 days. We remind you the day before it ends, and you can cancel in your App Store or Google Play settings.
