Why people switch from Strava route planning

You want a route-builder-first workflow instead of a training/social-first product.

You need trekking, bikepacking, straight-line planning, and multi-day trip building in one place.

You want imports and exports that keep your routes portable.

What rooot adds

Straight-line planning for direct start-to-finish routes with elevation and weather.

Multi-day trip planning with staged route building for bigger adventures.

Elevation, surface, way-type, precipitation, and wind overlays in the route analysis.

Import/export that keeps your routes portable instead of trapped in one platform.

Built for switching without lock-in

If you are comparing route planners, rooot is designed around open map data, detailed route analysis, GPX ownership, and practical planning workflows for cycling, trekking, hiking, straight-line, and multi-day trips.
