Plan GPS Art Routes
Turn your rides, runs, and walks into art.
RouteCanvas lets you plan creative GPS routes that trace shapes on the map. Pick a shape — a heart, unicorn, star, lightning bolt — or draw your own freehand. Set your target distance, and RouteCanvas generates a real road-snapped route that follows your shape. Export to Strava, Garmin, Komoot, or any GPX-compatible app and start your GPS art adventure.
KEY FEATURES:
Shape Templates
Choose from 10+ fun predefined shapes including heart, star, unicorn, cat, dog, bicycle, diamond, infinity, and more. New shapes added regularly.
Freehand Drawing
Draw any shape you want directly on the map. Your artistic vision, your route.
Smart Route Generation
Our algorithm snaps your shape to real roads, bike paths, and sidewalks. See how closely the route matches your shape with the match score.
Plan Anywhere
Drop a pin anywhere in the world to plan routes remotely. Plan a London run from your couch in New York. Search any city, zoom in, and drop your pin.
Distance Control
Set your target distance from 1 to 100 km. Quick-pick presets for 5, 10, 20, and 50 km. Switch between kilometers and miles.
Three Activity Modes
Optimized routing for cycling, running, or walking. Each mode uses appropriate paths and speed estimates.
Shape Manipulation
Drag to reposition your shape. Rotate with two fingers to align with the street grid. Fine-tune until it's perfect.
