I fell in love with Mapy.cz (Google Maps alternative) It's a wonderful replacement for Google Maps when you're out walking or hiking.

I've had so many times that I trusted Mapy by walking down a path or alley that looked abandoned and/or prohibited, only to arrive at wonderful hidden places on the trail or in the city, free of any other traveller/tourist. Never got shivved either!

Every walkable path is on Mapy, hardened or not. And if it's worth the trouble you'll see the trail colours/codes next to the path so you don't have to do any planning before walking. The app also let's you track your route so you can see where you've been walking, how fast, how long, etc. And you can also download offline maps. The only thing I feel is flawed, is their navigation, which I prefer not to use.

I also love DeepL for translation, but there was a recent post about it, so I won't mention it further.

I think it's worth pointing out that mapy.cz ~~is a frontend for~~ uses data from Openstreetmap, so the quality of the data will vary depending on if people have contributed in the area (please contribute if you spot anything missing), and there are other ways to access the same data.
