Walking Route Map Planner

Total distance: 0 metres

Distance Walked

This tool allows you to plot a route on a map and see how far along you have got with the distance you walked. You can draw your route anywhere in the world; follow the Great Wall of China, cross a continent, wherever you want to go. To get you started you could choose one of our preset walks such as the London marathon course.

Creating a Route

Firstly, choose a place to start your walk. Use the arrows on the top left of the map to move around and the + and - to zoom in and out. Click once on the map to add your first point. You can move points around by dragging the markers. Clicking the delete button will delete the last point you created. As you add more points your route is drawn and the total distance is shown below. Clicking the "Zoom" button will show your whole route in the map window. If you like, you can use one of our premade routes by clicking its link from the list.

If you type the total distance you have walked (in metres) into the box and click "Show" you can see how far along the route you have travelled. If you want to alter or extend your route simply click "Edit Mode" and follow the directions as above. To hide the markers and exit Editing Mode click on "Progress Mode".
