Meet Clément Lallemand — adventurer, storyteller, and motorcycle traveler — currently on an epic journey from Paris → Dakar → Paris, following the legendary tracks of the original Dakar Rally with Guru Maps.

Together with his friend, Clément set out to relive one of the most iconic overland routes in the world — pushing their skills, endurance, and curiosity to the limit. They’re tracing the dusty trails, mountain passes, and open roads that connect Europe to Africa, documenting every stage of the ride on Instagram.

We’re excited to introduce a new feature in Guru Maps — the Recently Deleted folder!

Have you ever accidentally deleted a track, folder, pinned place, or route? Don’t worry — now those items aren’t lost forever. With this new feature, anything you delete is moved to a special folder where you can recover it if needed.

Meet the Android Auto support in the latest Guru Maps update for Android! 🎉

You can now use Guru Maps right from your car’s dashboard. Search places, build routes, and access your saved places — all without picking up your phone.

This works perfectly with our recently added lane guidance and perspective map view, which shows a clear visual path along your route. Together, they make both road trips and off-road adventures easier to follow.

We’ve got some exciting news for all Guru Maps drivers — a new Lane Guidance feature has just rolled out to make navigation even more intuitive and stress-free.

Whether you're driving a car, riding a motorcycle, or behind the wheel of a truck, staying in the correct lane is now easier than ever. In navigation mode, Guru Maps now shows visual lane indicators on your screen to help you prepare for upcoming turns, exits, and complex intersections.

We’re excited to announce a new search category designed to make your outdoor adventures easier and more organized! Our new outdoor activities quick search category is now live, allowing you to find outdoor spots like camping sites, caravan areas, fishing locations, picnic sites and tables, water sources, shelters, and alpine huts—all with just a few taps!

We're excited to announce a new feature in Guru Maps for iOS and Android starting with version 5.6.0 - the ability to change the map’s tilt.

When following directions, a tilted map perspective can be more intuitive than the traditional overhead view. This perspective simulates what a traveler sees when looking at the road ahead, making navigation more user-friendly and realistic.

Now, you can easily create a picture with your GPS track and activity stats recorded in the app, ready to share with your friends and family:

We're thrilled to announce the new real-time weather map layer that shows the Precipitation Intensity within the Guru Maps app. Whether you're hiking through the mountains, cycling across town, or motorcycling down scenic routes, staying informed about precipitation intensity can significantly impact your safety, visibility, and overall experience.

Why precipitation intensity matters​

Weather conditions are a critical factor to consider when planning any outdoor route. Understanding the instantaneous precipitation rate at ground level can help you make informed decisions about whether to start your journey or when to take breaks.

Sometimes when you're recording a GPS track in Guru Maps, you might accidentally leave recording running or start it too early. Now you can trim the track from its beginning or end using the Trim Track feature.

Guru Maps includes countless objects, roads, and points of interest. With so many locations marked, it's easy to overlook the places you visit most often.

That's where quick places come in handy, allowing you to save your Home and Work locations permanently and get directions in a single tap.
