Does anybody know a good tool / app / service for creating tours for cycling?

I want to set a startpoint, track type (for example road + gravel) and a distance and get a route.
Komoot doesn't have that feature. I don't know if Strava offers this, but the platform feels a bit shady and is also quite expensive.

I love that kind of route planing, because it gives you a new route every time. Calimoto has this feature for example, but that is obviously for motorcycles.

@thomas Think what you’re looking for is Ride with GPS

@nicfox Are you talking about ridewithgps.com?
Because that can't do any of what I want.
Maybe I was not specific enough. I want to "says" where I start and and how long my route should be and on what kind of surface I want to ride. For example create a route of "40km of easy gravel".

@thomas Under their Find Route section you get these search parameters. Not what you’re looking for?

@nicfox Okay, fair enough. Didn’t find that. Also those are routes by other users, right? Those rarely start even close to my location. ;-)
I‘m just used to my motorcycle routing app, which I can tell, start at my home and create me a loop of 150km going south.

@thomas Yeah, route choices can be slim depending where you live. Be interested to see what other people know of.

You got me curious about trying out that motorcycle routing app though - nice to have another option in the route planning toolkit.
