Description
Life's too short to ride busy roads! cycle.travel is the app that finds you a route on quiet lanes and traffic-free cycleways.
Turn-by-turn directions and offline maps are 100% free - no need to "go premium". Trusted by thousands as a route-planning website, it's now an app for the first time.
Plan a cross-city commute, an afternoon ride, or a two-month touring holiday. cycle.travel finds your route in seconds to select the quietest, most scenic roads. Put your phone on your handlebars and let cycle.travel guide you.
cycle.travel is 100% independent, developed by one cyclist to plan the sort of routes I love. Become a supporter to help development of the app, and get extra maps such as Ordnance Survey, IGN France and OpenCycleMap!
"Essential for bicycling nomads" - The Guardian. "Fantastic" - Alastair Humphreys, author of Microadventures. "Better than all the other cycling route planners" - Jack Thurston, author of Lost Lanes. "A really good tool that I use a lot" - Will Norman, London's Cycling & Walking Commissioner.

What’s New
Version 1.5.1
Turn-by-turn instructions can now be in French as well as English. Plus a couple of little bugfixes.
Also new recently: Add your own markers to the map! Favourite cafes, awesome views, useful cut-throughs… whatever you like. Add photos and text. They'll appear both in the app and on the cycle.travel website.
Warning icons now appear for fords, ferries and border crossings. You can reverse your route with one tap, there's a "map lock" mode to avoid accidental swipes, and a new map key/legend. Plus a boatload of bugfixes and usability improvements.
Ratings and Reviews
The easiest, best routing app
Absolutely brilliant. I’ve tried most apps but find this the easiest and best for cycling.
Plotted a 90miler on desktop for yesterday, not a single issue, started with an existing short route, added the extra route easily with the automatic suggestions and then pulled the route about to make the detours I wanted, then exported gpx to send to friends and sent to garmin connect for myself.
Also used it for plotting gravel rides without any issue. Not once have I found myself on a scary A road or some sort of extreme redbull downhill. :D
Haven’t used the app for live directing yet but hope to use it soon, planning to get a phone mount and use Bluetooth ear phones…good reason to get lost in wales and then see how it gets me back. It’s genius!
Excellent cycle touring app
I have been using the desktop version for some years and the iOS app since it was released as a beta version. I have used many cycle touring apps but this is my favourite. It can export to gps units but I just use my phone. For a full day cycling I do take an external phone battery. Desktop and phone app is my ideal combination.
The best cycle touring planning website now in an app
I’ve been using this (beta testing) for a while and it keeps getting better, if I don’t like the proposed route a couple of waypoints will soon move it to something I prefer. I really like the preloaded routes on the site too as a starting point for a holiday plan.
