Import a GPX / KML file


Sport Distance Calculator





Import your file

You can load a route from your GPX or KML files, created by your GPS.

Steps to import a GPX or KML file:
  • Click the "Browse" button below to select your .gpx or .kml file.
  • Turn on "Merge files" if you want to combine several tracks (in that case, stay on this page after importing the first file).
  • Click "Send!" to start the import.
Merging several routes:
You can import several files (GPX or KML) and combine them into a single route, which is ideal for:
  • Assembling several legs of the same route.
  • Creating a single track from separate segments.
  • To merge your routes: import the first file (a preview will appear below), then stay on this page and import the second file.
Features available after import:
  • View the route on an interactive map.
  • Data analysis: distance, elevation, topography.
  • Edit the route if needed.
  • Export as a GPX or KML file.
  • Print with the route's details, or save the route online.

Import GPX and KML Files: View and Analyze Your Sports Routes on a Map

Easily import your GPS tracks to analyze elevation, calculate the exact distance and study the elevation profile of your outings (running, trail, cycling, mountain biking, hiking...).

Welcome to our geographic file import tool, accessible directly from our dedicated GPX and KML import page. Whether you recorded a track with your GPS watch (Garmin, Suunto, Coros, Wahoo), your bike computer, or downloaded a route from a third-party app, our platform gives you an interactive interface to view, decode and optimize your routes in seconds.

Why import your GPX or KML files on our platform?

The GPX (GPS Exchange Format) and KML (Keyhole Markup Language) formats are the go-to standards for storing and exchanging outdoor navigation data. By importing your file onto our interactive map, you get a complete, detailed analysis of your outing:

  • Precision map display: Instantly show your track on high-quality map layers (OpenStreetMap, ESRI Topo, OpenCycleMap, etc.) to inspect every part of your route.
  • Detailed elevation analysis: Get the full elevation profile of your route, view cumulative elevation gain and loss, identify gradient percentages and spot the main difficulties (mountain passes, steep climbs, false flats).
  • Calculation of key metrics: Precisely measure the total distance, estimate the effort time needed for your discipline, and assess the overall physical load of your outing.

A tool compatible with all your outdoor activities

Whether you're preparing an outing or analyzing a past performance, our import tool adapts to all of your sports and leisure activities:

  • Running and Trail: Study your running loops, view the technical profile of your next mountain trail and check every kilometer of your training route.
  • Cycling, Road cycling and Gravel: Upload your cycling tracks to analyze the sequence of climbs, anticipate mountain-pass profiles and share your road books.
  • Mountain biking and Hiking / Walking: Check the condition and topography of hiking trails or MTB tracks before heading out into the wild.
  • Other outdoor activities: Also import your rollerblading, Nordic walking, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing tracks for precise tracking of your adventures.

How to import and use your file with total simplicity?

Using our tool requires no complex software installation:

  • 1. Drag and drop your file: Select or drag your `.gpx` or `.kml` file directly into the app's dedicated area.
  • 2. Explore the map: The route is instantly displayed on the map along with all the associated data.
  • 3. Edit or share: Adjust the track if needed, calculate your own custom pace times, and export your data again for your next challenges.

When merging routes:
  • The last imported route is shown in red.
  • The previous route is shown in blue.
  • The connection between the two routes is shown in green (if a connection is needed).

What Are GPX and KML Files?

GPX Files (GPS Exchange Format):

The GPX file is a standardized XML format used to record and exchange GPS data. It's mainly used for sports activities such as hiking, cycling, running and trail running.

Example use: recording an MTB ride with a GPS watch, then viewing the track on a map.

KML Files (Keyhole Markup Language):

The KML file is also an XML format, created by Google to display geographic data in software such as Google Earth or Google Maps.

Example use: creating a route to display in Google Earth, or preparing a track to follow on the ground.

Both formats are compatible with most sports GPS apps and can be used to import a route on this page.
