Plan a cycling route with elevation
When planning a cycling route, distance is only part of the story. Elevation can completely change how a ride feels. A 20-mile flat ride and a 20-mile hilly ride can be very different experiences.
That is why checking elevation before you ride is so useful.
With an elevation profile, you can see where the climbs are, how long they last and whether the route suits your fitness, bike and available time.
Kusihhu Route Planner is built to help cyclists create routes, review distance and elevation, save routes and export files for use with compatible GPS devices and apps.
Why elevation matters for cyclists
Climbs affect speed, effort and ride time. Planning with elevation in mind helps avoid surprises.
Match the route to the ride
A short recovery ride, a training ride and a long weekend route all need different planning. Elevation helps you choose the right route for the day.
Export your cycling route
Once your route is planned, you may want to export it as a GPX or TCX file for use with a compatible device or route app.
Save routes for later
Saving routes helps you build a collection of rides you can return to whenever you need them.
