About RouteConverter

RouteConverter reads more than 100 GPS file formats and writes dozens, covering Garmin, TomTom, Google Earth, Komoot, Strava, OpenStreetMap and many less common formats. Beyond conversion, it lets you trim, simplify, merge and reverse tracks, fix elevation using SRTM data, and snap routes to roads through BRouter with car, bike or hiking profiles.

It runs locally on Windows, macOS and Linux, and a portable Windows build is available. Your tracks stay on your machine, and no account is needed. It has been developed as open source since 2007.
