Route, distance and elevation calculator for all your sports activities
Plan your outdoor outings, analyze your elevation profiles and estimate
your effort time with our free, precise mapping tool that requires no
sign-up.
Welcome to Sport Distance Calculator, the go-to
platform dedicated to designing, measuring and optimizing your sports
and leisure routes anywhere in the world. Whether you're a seasoned
athlete in intensive training or a nature lover looking for a Sunday
stroll, our interactive interface gives you absolute mapping precision
to bring your active-mobility projects to life.
A tailor-made tool suited to every sport
Because every sport has its own physical constraints, speed and terrain
requirements, and its own way of reading a topographic profile, our
application offers dedicated features and analysis profiles for all of
your outdoor activities:
-
Running / Jogging: Ideal for mapping urban running
loops, planning interval sessions to the kilometer, precisely
measuring your training distances and avoiding surprise false flats
on your marathon or half-marathon build-up routes.
-
Hiking / Walking: Designed for lovers of hiking,
Nordic walking or trekking. Instantly view marked trails, calculate
realistic walking times that account for elevation gain, and plan
your family outings or long crossings safely.
-
Cycling / Touring / Gravel: Built for road cyclists,
bike touring enthusiasts and gravel riders. Map your road routes using
roads suited to your bike, anticipate mountain-pass profiles, assess
gradient percentages and optimize your long-distance rides on asphalt
or gravel roads.
-
Mountain biking / Trail running: Built for the thrill
of technical terrain and mountains. Explore forest trails, singletrack
and steep rocky paths. Analyze complex elevation profiles to master
the technical and physical intensity of your most demanding outings.
-
Other activities (rollerblading, race walking, cross-country
skiing, etc.): For all your soft and alternative outdoor
mobility that requires a reliable route calculation, rigorous
distance tracking and detailed mapping (OpenStreetMap, IGN
Géoportail, etc.).
How does our interactive route calculator work?
Drawing your route has never been so simple and intuitive. In just a few
clicks on the map, build your route exactly the way you want:
-
Free or guided creation: Click point by point to draw
your custom route, or use the automatic routing feature that
instantly follows the roads, cycle paths and trails on record.
-
Detailed elevation analysis: Instantly get the
elevation profile of your outing (total ascent and descent, highest
points) thanks to our built-in altimeter, and view the gradient
percentages kilometer by kilometer.
-
File management and sharing: Import or export your
tracks in universal formats (GPX, KML, TCX) to load them directly
onto your GPS watch (Garmin, Suunto, Wahoo, etc.) or bike computer,
and save your best routes to find them again at any time.
Why plan your training and routes in advance?
A successful outdoor outing relies on good preparation. Knowing the
exact total distance, the elevation gain profile and the estimated
effort time helps you better manage your hydration, nutrition and
energy reserves. Our site also provides valuable additional tools to
assess your fitness level (VO₂max, heart rate, BMI, estimated calories
burned, or the well-known
km-effort score calculation).
