Your trail exists – even when your phone doesn't
The app uploads your position regularly to the cloud. If your phone gets wet, runs out of battery, or drops coverage, your last known position is already with the people who need it.
For everyone with someone out there
If the unthinkable happens, the worst part is not knowing where.
Every year people go missing on mountain hikes, at sea, in kayaks. The phone is dead, wet, out of range. No one knows where they are. Ferdasvenn leaves a silent trail in the background – so someone always knows where to start looking.
- Silent background trail
- SOS mode
- Share with one link
SOS by intention, not by accident
SOS is activated with a deliberate hold. No false alarms. Your coordinates are prioritized and shown clearly to your emergency contact.
Sharing without friction
One secure link gives your emergency contact access to your trail. No app install, no login. Just what they need, when they need it.
Who is Ferdasvenn for
For everyone waiting for someone who's out there.
You don't need to be afraid to send someone out. But you need to know you can find them again. Ferdasvenn is built for the person waiting at home, the one renting out boats, the guide taking tourists into the mountains – and for the one out there who wants someone to know where they are.
Tour operators and activity hosts
You rent out kayaks, organize fishing trips, or guide people across glaciers. Ferdasvenn lets you connect guests to activities and see where they are – without building your own safety system.
Family and loved ones
Your husband is setting nets in the fjord. Your daughter is hiking alone in the mountains. With Ferdasvenn you never have to wonder if they're safe – you can see it.
People on the move
You paddle, fish, ski, cycle, hike. You start the trip in the app and know that your trail exists even if you never need it. It costs you nothing to have it there.
Your guests, your responsibility
Tour operators can connect guests to vessels, equipment, and time slots. If a storm rolls in, you know exactly where everyone is – without calling around in a panic.
Tourists who don't know the terrain
Visitors underestimate Norwegian nature. Ferdasvenn lets the host or operator watch quietly in the background – and step in early if something seems off.
A trail that tells the story
The route shows where the person was, when SOS was triggered, and whether movement stopped. For rescue teams, this is the difference between hours and minutes.
Action instead of panic
The emergency contact gets a clear overview and concrete steps: Try calling. Check last position. Call 112 with these coordinates. No guessing – action.
Paddling, fishing, hiking, biking, skiing
Ferdasvenn isn't built for one activity. The app adapts checklists, gear, and risk assessment to what you're doing – from deep-sea fishing to glacier crossings.
Trip log and routes
Your trail becomes a trip log with distance, duration, and elevation. Even on perfectly safe outings the app is useful – not just when things go wrong.
For families
That ice-cold fear when someone you love doesn't come home on time. Ferdasvenn is built to replace that fear with a concrete answer: here they are, this is the last known position.
For tour operators
Give your guests freedom and yourself peace of mind. Whether you rent out boats, kayaks, bikes, or guide people in the mountains – Ferdasvenn gives you the overview you need without being intrusive.
When someone doesn't come back
One link. No app. Just the answers you need.
The emergency contact opens a secure web page directly in the browser. They see the trail, last position, and status – without downloading anything, without logging in, without delay.
Instant overview
The link shows who is sharing, where they are, and whether SOS is active. No unnecessary information – just what matters right now.
Guided escalation
The page guides you: Try making contact first. Check last movement. Call emergency services with exact coordinates. Step by step.
Access closes automatically
When the trip is over and everyone is safe, the link expires on its own. No tracking beyond what's needed.
Ferdasvenn is an aid for safer outings – not a replacement for emergency numbers, rescue equipment, local knowledge, or common sense.
