Since 2010

Built for the long way around.

Chimani began with a simple belief: the best time in a national park starts with feeling prepared enough to wander. Since then, millions of explorers have used Chimani to find their way, go farther, and make more of the places that stay with them.

Along the way, Chimani has been named an Apple App of the Day and featured at WWDC for Apple Foundation Models. This campaign is a celebration of that journey—and an invitation to build what comes next together.

A note from Kerry

Thank you for believing in the road ahead.

When I launched Chimani in 2010, I never imagined it would become a community of millions of people planning meaningful days in America’s parks. I just wanted to make it easier to arrive curious and leave with a better story.

Recognition from Apple has been an honor, but the messages from people who found confidence, wonder, or a new favorite place with Chimani have always meant the most. This membership is an invitation to help shape the next decade—and I’m deeply grateful for every person who chooses to join us.
