AdventureLog

What AdventureLog is

AdventureLog is a self-hosted travel companion for recording places, planning trips, and tracking travel on a map. A location record can include dates, notes, photos, categories, trails, and visit history. For multi-day trips, users can organize flights and lodging alongside checklists, calendar views, and shared planning. The app also tracks visited countries, regions, and cities, with travel statistics and milestones.

An interactive map, full-text search, and custom categories help organize records; visibility can be public or private. Listed integrations include Immich, Strava, Endurain, Wanderer, and Google Maps. The product names MFA, API keys, and social authentication through Google, GitHub, and Authelia as security options. AdventureLog is open source under GPL-3.0, and its Free self-hosted plan costs nothing. Because it is self-hosted, users keep their data on their own server and control access and sharing. The maker recommends Docker and provides guides for homelabs, NAS platforms, and Kubernetes. The installation guide lists Docker Engine with Docker Compose v2 and 2 GB RAM on first boot; supported host options include a Linux server, VPS, homelab, or macOS with Docker Desktop. Founded in 2023, it links users to Discord and GitHub issue reporting.
