Adding a campsite
If you find a campsite that isn’t in Overland Navigator, you can submit it directly from the app. Submitted campsites go through a review process before they become publicly visible.
There are two ways to open the Add Campsite form:
- Long-press on the map at the campsite’s location, then tap Add Campsite from the menu that appears.
- Tap the waypoint toolbar button on the map, then choose Add Campsite.
A map picker lets you drag a pin to the exact location of the campsite entrance. Zoom in and place it as accurately as you can - this is what other users will use to navigate there.
The form is split into sections. Fill in as much as you can - the more detail you provide, the more useful it is for other people.
| Section | What to fill in |
|---|---|
| Basic info | Name, campsite type, region |
| Description | A short description of the campsite and what to expect |
| Photos | Add photos to help others know what to expect |
| Amenities | Facilities available (toilets, water, fire pits, etc.) |
| Pricing | Whether it’s free or paid, and approximate cost if known |
| Conditions | Ground surface, cellphone coverage, tent types suitable |
At the bottom of the form there’s a sharing toggle. If you turn this off, the campsite is saved privately and only visible to you. Leave it on to submit it for public review.
Your campsite will show up in the My campsites section of My Navigator with a Pending badge while it’s under review. Once approved it becomes Public and visible to all Overland Navigator users.
If you kept it private, it stays as Private and only you can see it.
