Verified routes

Only routes with verified distance, elevation, surface and GPX data appear here.

How the library works

A few principles that keep the library trustworthy.

  • Verified data only

    Routes are only listed once distance, elevation, surface and GPX have been checked against a verifiable source.

  • Filters match real fields

    Every filter maps to a field that exists on a verified route. No filter promises data the route does not actually carry.

  • Real GPX or nothing

    Download and device sync buttons only appear on routes with a real, verified GPX file.

  • Safety and access notes

    Safety, traffic and access notes are only shown when based on a verifiable source.

What a route detail page includes

Each verified route has a consistent layout so you know what to expect.

  • Interactive map with the route line
  • Elevation profile from real GPS data
  • Distance, elevation, difficulty and surface stats
  • Surface breakdown when verified
  • Climbs and key sectors
  • Safety and traffic notes when verified
  • GPX download and device sync when available
  • A before you ride checklist

Maps, elevation profiles and GPX downloads only render when the underlying data has been verified.
