KampTrail Launches: Free Campsite Map, No Account

Press release

Chuck Price has 35+ years of RV camping experience and travels in a 2018 Hymer Aktiv Class B.

Public beta brings campsites, public-land context, RV services and multi-stop trip planning together in one browser-based map.

MENANDS, N.Y. (Nov. 9, 2026) Chuck Price, creator of the RV camping site Boondock or Bust, today announced the public beta of KampTrail (kamptrail.com), a free campsite and trip-planning map for RVers, van campers and boondockers. KampTrail runs in any web browser, can be added to a phone’s home screen, and requires no account.

KampTrail arrives as campers look for alternatives to Free Roam, a free camping app that is no longer available, and to apps that put core search features behind subscriptions.

The map combines campsite records from Recreation.gov, the U.S. Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management and OpenStreetMap. Each listing links to its source. With KampTrail, campers can:

Check which agency manages the land at a point on the map
Find dump stations, water fill points, propane, rest areas and overnight parking options
Filter campsites by RV length and hookups where Recreation.gov reports them, and by elevation and forecast temperature
Plan multi-stop trips and send them to Google Maps in legs, or export them as GPX files
Save USGS Topo map areas for offline use
View fire perimeters, satellite smoke plumes and National Weather Service alerts
Read and post moderated camper reviews, photos and overnight-permission reports
Use the app in English, Spanish or French

“I’m building KampTrail to bring campsite information, public-land context and trip planning together,” said Price. “It’s free, there’s no account to create, and every listing shows where its information came from, so campers can check it before they go.”

KampTrail is built with its limits visible. Fees a source does not state stay marked unknown, not free. Listings show source and retrieval dates and are not field verified. A public-land boundary does not grant permission to camp, and routes currently use car routing that does not account for RV height, weight or length. KampTrail directs campers to confirm fees, access and closures with the land manager or operator.

Price and his partner, Cindy, travel in a 2018 Hymer Aktiv Class B. He invites campers to test KampTrail on a place they already know and send feedback from inside the app.

The KampTrail public beta is available now at kamptrail.com. Saved stops stay on the user’s device and can be backed up as GPX files. Short how-to videos are at kamptrail.com/how-to.html. For a walkthrough on this site, see the KampTrail campsite map guide.
