FAQ – Frequently asked questions
Why does the proposed route not go along a certain cycle path without traffic lights which goes by the railroad/seashore/park area and which I consider to be the best alternative for the searched route?
Routing is primarily based on pedestrian and cycle paths and favours main routes that are known to be good. The routing does not take into account traffic lights or scenic values.
Is it possible to seek a route that only goes along asphalt surfaced cycle paths?
You should select routing profile “prefer asphalt paved”.
How do I print out the route?
You can print out the whole route in parts so that two map pictures fit on one A4 sheet. If you print out a long route, please consider closing some images.
Is it possible to use the Journey Planner for Cycling and Walking with a mobile phone?
The most essential part of the user interface is a map display based on Ajax technology and thus, the service can be used only with a few most advanced mobile phones.
How do I load the route in my GPS-terminal?
You can download searched route in GPX- and KML-formats by clicking links above the map.
