Hiking Music — Songs at 105–135 BPM

Long trails call for music that carries you without rushing you: a steady tempo between 105 and 135 BPM matches a brisk hiking pace while leaving room for the scenery.

SONGFIT plays matching songs as 30-second previews — one hike is enough to discover dozens of new tracks. Save your favourites on the go and listen to them in full later.
