Hill Explorer started from a simple question my wife kept asking during our hiking trips: “What hill is that?” “And what’s that tower over there?” Since I’ve been developing software for many years, I decided to build an app made exactly for her — something that could instantly identify peaks, landmarks, and interesting places around us. What started as a small personal project slowly grew into something much bigger. While hiking together, we kept testing new ideas, improving the experience, and adding more features that outdoor enthusiasts would truly find useful. Today, Hill Explorer is not just an app for my wife anymore — it’s a smart hiking companion designed to help anyone explore the landscape around them in a more interactive and fun way. I’m really excited to finally share it with the Product Hunt community 🚀

During our hiking trips, my wife constantly asked me things like:

What mountain is that?
And what s that tower over there?

Since I ve been building software for many years, I decided to create a simple app that could identify peaks, landmarks and interesting places around us directly from a phone.

What started as a tiny personal project slowly evolved into Hill Explorer a hiking app focused on outdoor discovery and exploration.
