Plan a route on the web
In the Trip Planner on the web, click the map to set a start and an end, then click Save Route. The route shows up in the app, ready to ride.
Routes you plan in the Trip Planner on the web are in the app straight away, to navigate, share or change.
Move around the map
- Move the map: click and drag it.
- Zoom: scroll with your mouse or trackpad, or click the zoom buttons in the lower right corner.
- Change the map style: click the layer icon in the lower right corner.
Plan a route
- Add a start: click the map, or click the start field in the waypoint list and search for a place or address.
- Add an end the same way. The Trip Planner draws the route.
- Choose a road type above the waypoint list:
- Highway: the fastest route to your destination.
- Avoid Highway: keeps off highways.
- Curvy: the curviest roads.
Build the route as you go
Each click on the map, when no waypoint is selected, sets a new end. The previous end becomes a waypoint on the route. So you can build a route one stretch at a time:
- Add your start.
- Click a road you want to ride. It becomes the end.
- Click the next stretch of road. That becomes the end, and the previous one a waypoint.
- Repeat until the route is done.
Add, move and reorder waypoints
To add a waypoint:
- In the waypoint list, click add waypoint between the two places where you want it.
- With the new waypoint selected, search for a place or address, or click the map where you want it.
To move a waypoint, drag it on the map. Or click it in the waypoint list, then search for the new place or click it on the map.
To reorder waypoints, drag a waypoint's handle to its new place in the waypoint list.
Save the route
You need a Detecht account, and to be logged in, to save a route.
