How to use these files on your phone or sat-nav
- iPhone — Apple Maps
- Tap Open in Apple Maps. Apple Maps can't import GPX files, so the link plots the route as a multi-stop journey. If your iOS version only shows the first stop, use Drive it in legs.
- iPhone or Android — Google Maps
- Tap Open in Google Maps. Google allows up to 9 stops per link, so we add evenly spaced points that keep Google on our roads. For the exact line, import the KML into Google My Maps (mymaps.google.com → Create → Import).
