I’ve been working on a #travel #mapping tool this year that allows me to build routes for social sharing that includes water segments. That’s something that can not be done on Google Maps. Here is next month’s trip.

Trail idea → route in minutes. 🥾🗺️✨
With Locus Map, fast route planning means less time fiddling and more time hiking. Sketch your loop, check distance + elevation, adjust on the fly — then hit the trail with confidence. ⛰️
Where are you heading this weekend? 👇

But also a sad note to this: When I import one of those annotated GPX files into Garmin via Connect, it only picks up the route points that are right on the course, not those with a little distance.
I also can't manually add a course point in the Connect web app that is not directly on the course.
If anyone is aware of a workaround, that would be great 🙂
I found a lovely tool for planning long-distance cycling or walking routes, where you need to resupply along the route:
You upload your GPX route, set a distance you're willing to go from it, and get a map with gas stations, supermarkets, cafes, bakeries, etc. on it as POI. You can then select favorites, and export them as GPX again, to use when riding or walking.

Planning season is here.
Our Locus Map Web Planner is now faster and smoother thanks to a new map engine (MapLibre). Less waiting, fewer hiccups — more time shaping the perfect route.
Try it and tell us: do you feel the difference? Drop a comment!

That's a nice concept for a online tool (still in alpha stage if I get it right). You can load a gpx file, input how far you're willing to go off route, and then it shows all relevant POIs that are known through open street map. The idea is that you can reexport the track with the POIs included.
