Scope verdict

Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

komoot is a navigation service from Germany built for the outdoors. You can put together your own routes and follow hiking and cycling trails that other navigation services do not carry, then use the result for turn-by-turn navigation on the way.

The company is based in Germany, so it is a European alternative to the American navigation apps. It suits hikers, cyclists and anyone planning trips away from the main road network, on holiday or at the weekend.

Pricing

Navigation with online maps is free. Offline maps for a specific region cost a one-time 3.99 euros, and komoot Premium at 4.99 euros per month adds worldwide offline maps and more planning features.

Why this matters

This public website route ends on Amazon Web Services, whose European seller is wholly owned by Amazon.com, Inc. An EU region can provide European data residency but remains under US ultimate ownership. DNS does not reveal the AWS region, the core service's host, or use of the separately operated AWS European Sovereign Cloud.

Why this matters

Published MX records route incoming business email through Google Workspace. Correspondent details and message content can therefore enter this non-European provider's systems; MX does not reveal the configured storage region.

Public DNS records identify visible providers and routes, not every backend location or private data-region setting.
