About Bikerouter
Bikerouter is a web route planner for cycling that uses the BRouter engine and the brouter-web interface. One-click profiles cover road, gravel, trekking, MTB, shortest and safest routes, with many more in a selection list, and it can calculate up to three alternative routes between waypoints.
Routes can be downloaded as GPX for a navigation device, shared as a link, or saved. You can import GPX, GeoJSON or KML tracks as map layers or turn one into a route, and load no-go areas from GeoJSON. Route statistics show distance, riding time and elevation.
