Mcp

Overview

Mcp is a Model Context Protocol server that provides sourced trail facts organized into three verification tiers: verified-official, reported-secondary, and unverified, with empty fields for missing data. It lets AI assistants query trail information as callable tools instead of manual data lookup.

The server runs locally on your machine via the npm package @thehikingworld/mcp, which communicates over stdio. Installation is simple with npx -y @thehikingworld/mcp, requires no authentication, and works immediately out of the box. The latest release is v1.1.3.

Mcp is listed in the Development category on mcp.site and integrates with all major MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. Maintainers at The Hiking World can claim this listing to verify ownership, receive the Verified badge, and ensure information stays current.
