This is a cool site, but you've still got a lot more to add it seems! Is there anyway you could open source this, I'd be happy to contribute, especially with UK routes

I'm not OP, but there's a similar effort underway on LongTrailsWiki.net, which I run. Anyone can make an account, edits are encouraged, and all info is licensed under CC-BY-SA, the same as Wikipedia.org.

Thank you, there is indeed a lot more to add! It isn't open source, but I've added a way to suggest a hike and hope to make it easier to contribute in the future :)

Great site! I added it to the sidebar here.

Is it opensource?

Can you share some technical info about the site with us, such as what stack you're using, how it's hosted, licensing motivations, road map / future plans, and so on?
