How to find nice walking, running, and/or biking paths

‎01-20-2015 10:07

Hi,

 

I live in the city, and often travel for work to other major cities, and I am wondering if anyone has seen any apps that help you find new walking, running, and/or biking paths?


Any help at all would be great. Thanks!

Try walkjogrun.net. People post routes and any that are public are there for all to see. Gives distance and an elevation profile so you're not taken by surprise by that mile long 1000' ascent at the end. There are others like mapmyrun.com, funonfoot.com, and joggingroutes.org though I've never used those.

Runkeeper is good, as is mapmyrun and mapmywalk. They have a large user base and people share their favorite routes.

You might also try Garmin Connect.

I'm not sure if it's unique to their site, but they have their heat maps of popular routes, so you can visually look at map and may discover some popular trail you didn't know about.

Or, not so popular, but it'll show up still.
