GPX Import: Turn Your GPS Data into a Living Travel Map

If you record your hikes, bike rides, or road trips with a GPS device, you are sitting on a goldmine of data. The problem is that data usually stays buried in Garmin Connect, Strava, or a folder on your desktop.

Wanderinga's GPX import turns those raw tracks into something worth looking at.

What is a GPX file?

A GPX (GPS Exchange Format) file is a standard XML format that stores GPS coordinates over time. Virtually every GPS device and fitness app can export one:

• Garmin: Export from Garmin Connect as .gpx
• Strava: Export from the activity page
• Komoot: Download from any completed tour
• AllTrails: Available in the Pro version
• Any dedicated GPS unit or phone running a tracking app

Importing into Wanderinga

1. Open your trip in Wanderinga
2. Tap the + button and select Import GPX
3. Choose your .gpx file from Files or directly from a connected app
4. Wanderinga draws the full route on your map instantly
