Your hiking group, organized
Hikes, waivers, payments, and communications all in one place.
You didn't just “start a hiking group.” You're building a community.
You brought like-minded people together and created a space in the real world where they feel they belong. But coordinating members, communications, events, and collecting payments can be stressful and complicated.
Heylo is a platform that helps hiking group leaders build community by streamlining how they manage their groups.

Everything your hiking group needs
From trailhead to summit, every detail covered
Share routes, trailhead locations, difficulty levels, and packing lists. Collect RSVPs, cap group size for safety, and track attendance. Dedicated event chats let hikers coordinate carpools and ask last-minute questions.
Hikers connect before they hit the trail
Members see who’s joining, learn about each other through profiles and icebreakers, and show up to the trailhead already knowing someone. Photos and trip recaps after the hike turn one-time joiners into regulars.
Waivers, trip fees, and memberships in one flow
Collect signed waivers and payments when members register. Set up recurring memberships and offer sponsor perks to paying members, so your group has the funding to book permits and plan bigger trips.
