I’ve always believed that the best memories aren’t made in boardrooms or hotel lobbies—they’re made on the trail. It’s where laughter echoes louder, where stories unfold between steps, and where even the quietest person suddenly has something to shout about when they reach the top of the hill first.
That spirit of movement and connection is what inspired us to build TrackMate, and in particular, its ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge feature.
Whether you’re planning a team-building hike, a family “fun run” through the woods, or a friendly showdown between weekend warriors, Challenge turns a simple outing into something unforgettable.

How the ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge turns hikes into highlights
You don’t need to be an athlete to enjoy a little competition. With the ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge feature, anyone—whether they’re power-walking, jogging, or meandering with a camera in hand—can be part of the fun.
The feature is simple: a group of up to 15 people can join a shared challenge via the ExoTrails app. Once the event starts, everyone’s live location shows up on the map. You can track your own progress, see who’s ahead, and yes, strategically time your snack breaks so you still finish strong.
Perfect for any group: from families to corporate teams
We designed the ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge to work in a variety of real-life settings:
- Team-building retreats that end with laughter, not trust falls.
- Birthday hikes where friends cheer each other up steep trails.
- Family campouts where cousins race to the viewpoint (and grandpa still wins).
- Fitness groups looking for a reason to move together and celebrate after.
It’s outdoor fun, but with a dash of real-time excitement. And you don’t need a race bib or fancy gear, just the ExoTrails app and a good pair of shoes.
How the ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge works: from start to finish
The ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge setup takes less than a minute. One person creates the event in the app, picks the trail, and invites others to join. Once accepted, you’re all synced up and ready to go.
As the challenge unfolds, TrackMate displays your movement live, so you can see how the group is progressing. Maybe your co-worker is quietly speeding ahead, or your little cousin has taken a scenic detour to look at frogs.
At the finish line, the Leaderboard and Podium pop up – celebrating your top three finishers and showing a full rank of participants. It’s a moment of pride, high-fives, and probably a little good-natured teasing. And of course, the app saves everyone’s distance, pace, and fitness stats, so you can compare results or plan your rematch.
More than competition: a feature made for togetherness
What I love most about the ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge is that it makes the trail more than a place to walk. It becomes a space for connection, for shared effort, laughter, rivalry, and accomplishment. It’s a reason to invite people out, move your body, and create stories that live far beyond the trail itself.
So if you’re planning a day out soon, don’t just wander. Rally the crew, fire up TrackMate, and add a little extra fun to your next outing.
Because the best kind of adventure is the one you don’t just take but share. And with Challenge, you can track every joyful, breathless, unforgettable step of it.
Conclusion
The best kind of adventure is the one you don’t just take but share. The ExoTrails TrackMate Challenge was built on this belief—that a little friendly competition can be a powerful catalyst for connection. It’s a tool to bring people together, encourage them to move, and help them create joyful, breathless, unforgettable memories, one step at a time.
