  2. Current location: If you click here and the website has access to your location, the current location will be used;
  3. Favorites: Click here to choose a favorite;
  4. Start: Manually enter an address here to use as a starting point;
  5. Swap: Swap the start and end points here;
  6. End: Manually enter an address here to use as an end point;
  7. Surprise me: Let the generator create a scenic route based solely on your starting and end point;

Result

If you have clicked on generate, you will see a loading screen. Here you can already give a name to this route.


  1. Options: Here you can see the route options that were found with your settings. There can be a maximum of 3;
  2. Start over: Click here to go back to the beginning and adjust settings;
  3. Use this route: Satisfied with the result, click here to open the route in the Routeplanner.


ATTENTION! The different options also give a different curvature. The first option is considered by our program as the most fun option and is therefore generally the most curvy. The third option is usually the fastest route and will therefore contain a low curvature.



Save route


The route has now been added to your personal list as a route-track. If you want to make an adjustment to this route , click on + edit route-track (top right of the map).




You will now see a pop-up where you can still change the name of the route. By editing the scenic route, waypoints are added to recreate the track line. Check the placed waypoints to avoid unpleasant surprises with your route.
