What is RouteScout?

Pick a destination or a distance and we’ll build safe, scenic routes using real-world data. Fine-tune surfaces, turns, elevation, and loopback for your perfect ride.

Everything you need for smarter cycling. RouteScout blends flexibility and control, so every ride matches your mood.

  • Direct Route: Set start/end points and we’ll build a bike-friendly path with your preferred turn density and surfaces.
  • Landmark Mode: Pick a center and distance. We’ll find great landmarks within range and route you there and back.
  • Node Explorer: Get a peek inside how RouteScout works. Tap the map to inspect graph nodes and nearby connections, great for route nerds and power users.
  • Surfaces: Prefer paved, gravel, or mixed? Choose what you ride on and exclude surface types you want to avoid.
  • Road types: Bias toward quieter residential streets and bike routes, away from busy arterials, so rides feel calmer.
  • Cyclability: Our cyclability setting prefers bike lanes, cycling-exclusive paths, and quieter roads to keep rides enjoyable.
  • Elevation: Pick your hill flavor—from flat and fast to steep and scenic, with a visual elevation profile.
  • Sharing: Toggle public links, copy to clipboard, or download GPX for your device. It’s your route, share it your way.

How it works

  1. Pick a mode: Choose Direct, Landmark, or Node Explorer from a modern, mobile-friendly interface.
  2. Set your preferences: Tell us your goals. Prefer bike lanes and quiet streets? Want fewer turns, especially left turns? Love hills or hate them? RouteScout adapts.
  3. Generate & ride: Get from A ? B beautifully. Preview the 3D route with elevation, copy a public link, or export GPX, then get moving.
