Varda: Ski & Snow Navigation

Tired of wasting half your ski day texting "Where are you?" with freezing hands? 🥶

Never lose your friends on the mountain again. Varda is the ultimate ski navigation app built specifically for groups. See your crew in real-time, coordinate smart meetups, and route together so you spend more time carving and less time waiting around.

📍 REGROUP & RIDE TOGETHER Share your live location securely with friends to see exactly who is riding and who is grabbing a drink at the lodge. Drop a meetup pin anywhere on the mountain and watch live statuses—see who has viewed the invite, who is en route, and who has arrived. No more missed rendezvous or split-up groups.

⏱️ SMART ARRIVE-BY PLANNER The smartest way to coordinate on a mountain with spotty mobile service. Simply set a meetup time and destination, and Varda calculates the routes, telling everyone in your group exactly when to leave so you all arrive at the same time.

🎧 AUDIO & HAPTIC NAVIGATION Keep your phone warm in your pocket. Tap any piste, lift, or lodge and get step-by-step audio, visual, and haptic directions down the mountain. Feel a subtle vibration when it’s time to turn so you never miss a beat. Varda’s smart routing even adjusts to your specific skiing or riding ability level.

🗺️ 6,000+ RESORTS WORLDWIDE Complete global coverage. Explore detailed, interactive vector maps featuring pistes, lifts, lodges, toilets, and key points of interest for virtually every ski resort across the globe.

🔍 SEARCH & DISCOVER Instantly find any specific run, lift, or lodge by name. Filter the mountain by difficulty or category, and save your favourites for quick, one-tap navigation later.

⛷️ RIDE STATS & EXPORT Automatic background tracking of your runs, total distance, vertical drop, and top speed—no "record" button needed. Export your tracks as GPX files to sync with Strava and other fitness apps.

⚠️ LIVE CONDITION REPORTS Spotted a sheet of ice, bare rocks, or a hidden powder stash? Report live conditions to help fellow riders stay informed and safe on the mountain.

🔒 PRIVACY FIRST & AD-FREE Varda’s core group tracking, basic meetups, and standard navigation are free to use with absolutely no ads. Your location is shared only with the friends you choose, and analytics are entirely optional. (Unlock increased friend, group and routing limits, Arrive-By Planning and waypoints with a Varda Pro upgrade).

🏔️ SAFETY REMINDER Routes are suggestions only. Mountain conditions change rapidly. Always obey resort signage, piste closures, and ski patrol instructions. You are responsible for your own safety on the mountain.

A full safety disclaimer is presented before your first route and is available at any time in Settings → Legal & Privacy.
