We know that COVID-19 makes this a challenging if not impossible time for many athletes to get outside. Please put your health and safety first. Follow your local guidelines, and we'll continue making Routes better for when these difficult times are behind us.
Strava athletes know the best places to ride and run, and with 50 million of you in total, that's a whole lot of routes – not just the world's must-do roads and trails, but also the easiest ways to get around town and the most bang-for-the-buck workouts from almost anywhere.
To help you unlock all that knowledge, we're building new features for Routes, powered by the Strava community and OpenStreetMap, the world's biggest open-source map dataset.
Strava subscribers can get personalized route suggestions in the app, or use the web to plan rides and runs with a whole new suite of easy-to-use features. If you don't already have a subscription to Strava, start a free trial to dive in.
Get There Any Way You Like
When you build your route on the web, you can choose to connect points with a simple straight line, or let us take you on the roads and trails that other athletes have taken before. Use the most popular path or a more direct one to get you started. Then if you're looking for more climbs or trails nearby, adjust your elevation and surface preferences and we'll add them into your route where possible.
You Say What and Where – We'll Build It
Looking for a new route but don't have the time to plot one out? Routes in the app was made for you.
Whether you're looking for a new run or ride from your front door or to explore somewhere unfamiliar, you can quickly get personalized route suggestions that fit the bill, straight from your phone. Long or short, paved or dirt, hilly or flat – you decide and we'll create options based on where athletes actually go.
If one of those options sparks an idea of your own, try out the Draw feature to make a quick sketch and we'll match it to popular roads and trails.

Save, Navigate and Sync to Garmin
When you've got a route you like, save it, navigate from the app, or automatically sync it straight to any Garmin device that has Courses.
You can also use it on other compatible devices or share it with friends, training partners and anyone else looking for a new place to go.
