Everything you need to plan a trip that fits your van

Hopstead brings routing, stays, days and the details together in one plan. Here's what each part does.

Vehicle-aware routing

Set up a vehicle profile with height, weight and length, and routing uses a heavy-vehicle profile that steers around low bridges and unsuitable roads. Your vehicle's size also filters the overnight-stop suggestions, so you won't be pointed at a pitch that can't take your length.

Overnight-stop suggestions

Set a comfortable daily drive budget and Hopstead flags legs that run over. One tap suggests overnight stops in the corridor along your route, ranked by how little they detour you, what there is to do nearby, and the quality of the stay. Accept the ones you like; reject the rest and it re-scores.

Day-by-day itineraries

Every stay automatically breaks into days, from arrival to departure. Plan what you'll actually do each day and build the trip the way you'll live it, rather than as one continuous drive.

Interest-ranked things to do

Pick the things you care about — castles, viewpoints, beaches, walks, nature, history, towns — and nearby points of interest are ranked to match, weighted by distance and popularity. Add any of them straight onto a day.

Fuel Finder

Hopstead surfaces fuel stations within a short detour of your route and sorts them cheapest-first, with the distance to each, so you can plan a fill-up without paying motorway prices.

AI trip ideas

Ask for ideas near any stay and Hopstead proposes places to visit — then verifies each one against a real, geocoded location before showing it, so you get genuine spots rather than invented ones.

Read-only sharing

Generate a share link and travel companions can see the whole itinerary, stays and stops in a clean read-only view. Revoke it any time.

One-tap navigation

Every stop links straight into your navigation app of choice, and you can launch the full route as waypoints when it's time to actually hit the road.

Parking & legality flags

Known restriction zones — no-overnight areas, permit-only spots, seasonal orders — show on the map and flag affected stops, with the restriction type, season and when it was last checked. Always advisory: check the signs on the ground too.
