Online Maps to GPX

Simply copy the Google Maps URL of your route (either a shortened goo.gl link or full maps.google.com URL), paste it into the input field above, select your preferred format (GPX or KMZ), and click "Convert Route". The conversion happens instantly, and you can download your file in seconds.

GPX files are compatible with virtually all GPS devices and outdoor apps including Garmin devices, Suunto watches, Wahoo computers, Strava, Komoot, Wikiloc, AllTrails, Ride with GPS, and many more. GPX is the universal standard for GPS data exchange.

Yes! Online Maps to GPX is 100% free with no hidden fees, subscriptions, or limits. We believe outdoor navigation tools should be accessible to everyone. If you find the service useful, consider supporting us via the optional PayPal donation button to help cover server costs.

You can convert any Google Maps route including driving directions, walking paths, cycling routes, and multi-stop itineraries. The service supports routes with multiple waypoints (up to 25 stops) and preserves all route details including distances and turn-by-turn directions.

GPX is the standard GPS format used by most outdoor devices and fitness apps like Garmin, Strava, and hiking apps. KMZ is Google Earth's format with rich styling and visualization features, ideal for viewing routes with custom markers and colors. Choose GPX for navigation devices, KMZ for visualization and sharing.

Yes! You can optionally include elevation data (ascent, descent, max/min elevation) in your GPX files. We use the free Open Elevation API powered by NASA's SRTM dataset. This adds valuable altitude information for hiking, cycling, and trail running routes with minimal processing time increase.

Very accurate! We use Google's official Directions API to extract precise route data with high-fidelity coordinate points. The GPX files contain the exact same route geometry that Google Maps uses, ensuring your GPS device or app follows the intended path accurately.

Absolutely! Our service automatically handles both shortened Google Maps links (maps.app.goo.gl) and full Google Maps URLs. Just paste either format, and we'll extract the route data correctly.

Yes, your privacy is our priority. We don't store any route data, URLs, or personal information. All conversions happen in real-time, and files are generated on-demand without any data retention. We only track anonymous aggregate statistics (total conversions per day) to monitor service usage.

We implement reasonable rate limiting (10 requests per minute per IP) to ensure fair usage and prevent abuse. This is more than enough for individual users. Routes can contain up to 25 waypoints (Google Maps API limit). There are no daily limits or account requirements.

Our interface is available in English, Spanish (Español), and Catalan (Català). The language is automatically detected from your browser settings, or you can manually select your preferred language from the language selector in the header.

Currently, we specialize in Google Maps route conversion to ensure the highest accuracy and reliability. Support for other mapping services (Apple Maps, Bing Maps, OpenStreetMap) may be added in the future based on user demand.
