Real-world maps in Sledders.
Real mountains, real forest, real trails, as custom Sledders levels. What is real in them, and where to ride one tonight.
Yes, you can ride real places in Sledders. Real-world maps are custom levels built from real elevation data (public LiDAR, 1 m detail in Québec and most of the US), real forest canopy, and the real trails, rivers and lakes from OpenStreetMap. They live on mod.io like any custom level, free to subscribe to on PC, Xbox and PS5, and YourSledMaps builds one of any place you pick.
What is real, and what isn't
| Part of the level | Where it comes from | What you notice riding |
|---|---|---|
| Ground | Public LiDAR and elevation models | Ridges, gullies, chutes and valleys where they really are |
| Forest | Real forest canopy data | Tight trees where the forest is thick, open glades where it isn't |
| Trails | OpenStreetMap | Groomed trails on the real forest roads, with the real junctions |
| Water | OpenStreetMap | Frozen lakes and streams in their real place |
| Not included | No photos, no buildings | It's the real shape of the land, not a photo replica |

Real-world maps,
quick answers.
Accuracy, data, cost and consoles.
Yes. Sledders custom levels on mod.io include real places, some sculpted by hand in the Level Editor and some built from real elevation data with YourSledMaps. You subscribe to them on mod.io like any other level.
The ground comes from public LiDAR, so ridges, gullies and valleys are where they really are, at 1 m detail in Québec and most of the US. Forest density and tree type come from real canopy data. Think "that's my hill", not a photo replica; detail varies by place.
Yes. Search your area in the YourSledMaps builder, draw a box up to about 8 × 8 km, and we build it into a level on mod.io, credited to you. Most maps are ready the same evening.
Yes. Every level on mod.io is free to subscribe to with your own copy of Sledders and a free mod.io account. Only ordering a new map of your own place is paid.
Yes, once Hanki Games approves each level's console build. PC usually gets a new level first. Sledders has cross-play between PC, Xbox Series X|S and PS5.
Open data only: public LiDAR and elevation models for the ground (such as USGS 3DEP in the US and the Québec government's LiDAR), forest canopy data for the trees, and OpenStreetMap for trails, rivers, lakes and names. Photos never end up in a level.
