What is VeloPlanner?
VeloPlanner is a bike route planner from Poland, built around official, signposted routes: the whole EuroVelo network, Alpe Adria and more than 100 others, each with a guide, surface details and places to sleep. You can follow one as it is or open it in the planner and change it. Routing uses OpenStreetMap, so it plans anywhere in the world.
It also takes your riding history: upload your Strava export and VeloPlanner draws every road you've ridden. There is no Strava login: the export goes in as a file.
Key Features
A planner for road, gravel and touring
Pick a routing profile, check the surface before you commit, split a long trip into stages and export the GPX for your bike computer. Garmin, Hammerhead and Wahoo users can send routes to their account instead.
Your Strava history as a heatmap
On the website, drop the whole export from Strava, Garmin or Komoot, or single FIT, GPX and TCX files. "My heatmap" then works on any map, in the app and on the web: roads you ride often show darker, and you can pick a colour, fade it, or show only some sports or dates.
Your year at a glance
Activities opens with the year's distance, moving time, active days and climbing over a calendar of every day you rode. Switch to All for all-time totals and a bar for each year. On iPhone, a home-screen widget shows the month so far.
Every ride on one map
On the website, My activities can put all your activities on one map, filtered by type, date, distance or name.
Who It's For
- Touring cyclists planning a trip on EuroVelo or another signposted route
- Riders with years on Strava who want to see where they've been, and where they haven't, next to the routes they plan
Worth Knowing
The upload is on the website and needs a VeloPlanner account. You choose before uploading whether the imported activities are public or private, and you can change it per activity later. The uploaded files are deleted once the import ends (within 7 days at the latest); the imported activities stay in your account until you delete them.
New activities can arrive on their own from Garmin or Hammerhead. Garmin sends only the past month, so older rides come in with a Garmin export. Wahoo activity sync was in testing in November 2026. VeloPlanner documents no Strava connection: rides from Strava come in with the Strava export.
VeloPlanner is a planner, not a turn-by-turn navigation app. Planning, the map, elevation profiles, GPX export and the apps are free. Premium is $34.99 a year on the website and adds unlimited routes and collections, satellite maps, weather along the route, Street View, a 3D view, offline routes and no ads; the US App Store also sells it at $6.99 a month. The heatmap and year view need version 2.10 of the app.
