I’m totally happy to pay the fee associated with joining, but I’d like to have some idea of how many hosts might be available along certain routes.

Even knowing how many hosts might be in a particular city could be very helpful.

Does this exist?

    AFAIK you can host without paying, you just need an account? If not I can send you a screenshot of a city if you say which one?

      The only registration page I saw asks for $30.

      EDIT: Oh, god, I didn’t realize you need a subscription if you want to use the service “as a cyclist”:

      "The app is normally available on a subscription basis which you can choose to pay as either a monthly or an annual subscription. If you joined Warmshowers more than a month ago, your free trial period for the app has now ended and to use the app as a cyclist you need to choose a subscription.

      You can access Warmshowers for free via the website or you can use the app for free in Host Only mode to manage your incoming hosting requests from other users."

      That’s awesome of you. I was hoping to see (more or less) what’s available between Belleville, Kingston, and upwards to Ottawa in Ontario, Canada. It’s not a huge area, but unless I know what’s around, it’s difficult to really plan anything.

      I think if there’s enough going on, I’ll be happy to sign up with the registration fee and explore from there. It’d be a huge selling feature if they just had a basic heatmap of hosts available.
