What to remember in thirty seconds

A link for the route. A separate meeting point.

Choose a route in AllTrails, tap Share, then Copy link. When creating your Foulevo session, open “Route · optional”, then “Add a link”. People allowed to view the session can open the route before admission. The exact meeting point is set separately and remains private.

Follow the four steps

From an idea to the first hello

The path is there. All that's left is to bring the group together.

You've spotted a trail and can already imagine the outing. Just a few more steps will let others know which route you'll follow and where to meet.

Lac de la Rosière and Cascade des Poux, near Courchevel, serve as the example. The AllTrails screenshots below show the route page and how to share its link.

The visual guide

Four steps, one shared path.

Choose a step. On your phone, you can also swipe the card to move forward.

01 / Choose · Before inviting

Start with what the route actually requires.

On the “Lac de la Rosière – Cascade des Poux” page, AllTrails lists a 6.0 km loop, 293 m of elevation gain, an estimated 2 to 3 hours and “Moderate” difficulty. These are guidelines for preparing the outing, not a promise of how long your group will take. The screenshot also shows an alert to read.

Before inviting anyone, open the page for this route on AllTrails and check current information, weather and trail conditions. State a duration and pace you can keep with the people you expect.

02 / Copy · In AllTrails

Open Share, then copy the link.

On the route page on your phone, tap the share icon at the top of the screen. In the view that opens, choose Copy link. This gives you the route address to paste when creating your session.

03 / Suggest · In Foulevo

Describe the outing, then attach the route.

In Foulevo, create a hiking session. At the “Where do we meet?” step, open Route · optional, then Add a link. Paste the AllTrails address and choose Apply. Set the meeting point separately. The route is optional and can be changed later.

Set the exact meeting point in the dedicated field, with access directions if useful. The trail link alone does not tell people where to meet the group. The route can be viewed through authorised outing details before acceptance; the exact meeting point and conversation remain private.

04 / View · Before admission

Everyone authorised to view the session can consult the route.

In the session details, the Suggested route link opens AllTrails outside Foulevo. You can view it before requesting to join or while waiting. A private or invitation-only session retains its access rules: the link does not make the session public.

Before setting off, everyone can check the route again. The organiser can confirm the meeting point, time, useful equipment and any changes due to the day's conditions in the chat. The route remains AllTrails'; Foulevo helps bring the group together around a clearly described outing.

A chosen path is easier to share when everyone knows what to expect and where the first hello will happen.
