Turn your rowing and paddling workouts into a virtual expedition down the real Nile. Unlock landmarks, earn achievements, and watch your journey unfold.
Embark on a virtual expedition down the Nile River, powered by your real rowing and paddling workouts. Journey approximately 3,400 miles (5,500 km) from Lake Victoria to the Mediterranean Sea, unlocking historic landmarks, earning achievements, and watching your boat travel downstream with every workout.
YOUR EXPEDITION
Row, kayak, canoe, or paddle a SUP—on the water or on an indoor rowing machine (erg). Sync your distance automatically from Apple Health, or log it manually. Every metre moves your boat further downstream, bringing you closer to your next landmark and the Mediterranean Sea.
EXPLORE THE NILE
Travel through real locations including Murchison Falls, the Sudd Wetlands, Khartoum, the Nubian Desert, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Luxor, Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Giza, Cairo, and the Nile Delta. Unlock each landmark as you arrive, discover its history, and relive your progress anytime from the Journey tab.
EARN ACHIEVEMENTS
Unlock over 140 achievements for distance milestones, streaks, perfect weeks and months, pace, calories, and more. Track your progress with a clean dashboard, detailed statistics, and meaningful milestones throughout your expedition.
COMPETE WITH OTHERS
Climb weekly and all-time leaderboards, filter by sport, or compare yourself on the Verified leaderboard using only workouts synced from Apple Health.
SHARE YOUR JOURNEY
Celebrate your progress with beautifully designed share cards featuring your latest achievements, landmark discoveries, and expedition milestones—perfect for Stories, messaging apps, and social media.
