GPX route planner for importing tracks, organizing projects, and exporting clean files

Use GPX as part of a complete route-planning workflow instead of a one-time file handoff. Import tracks, refine the map, and export when ready.

TrailNote works well when your route planning starts with GPX or ends with GPX. You can import existing tracks, clean up the project with notes and markers, then export the result again for a device, another tool, or long-term backup.

Use Case

Import GPX tracks and waypoints into a real planning project instead of a disposable viewer.

Use Case

Refine imported data with markers, routes, notes, and project organization before the trip.

Use Case

Export clean GPX again when you need a portable file for backup or navigation workflows.

Why TrailNote

Built for map-first planning workflows

Start from existing GPX data without losing context

A GPX route planner should do more than preview a file. TrailNote turns imported GPX into project content you can edit, label, and keep organized over time.

  • Import tracks and waypoints into the project you actually plan from.
  • Rename routes after import so they stay discoverable later.
  • Review limits early if you work with larger GPX sets.

Mix GPX with map annotations and trip notes

Imported routes are only one part of the workflow. TrailNote lets you add markers, notes, labels, and supporting context around the imported path.

  • Add trailheads, resupply stops, parking, and logistics around imported tracks.
  • Use route styling to separate drafts, alternates, and confirmed segments.
  • Keep the map readable even when the GPX source data is messy.

Export when the route is ready, not before

The same project can end as a better GPX file than the one you started with. That matters when you need a backup, a portable archive, or a file for another navigation tool.

  • Export GPX after final route cleanup and naming.
  • Keep one portable archive of the project for later reuse.
  • Share the map first, then export when a file is actually needed.

Can I export planned routes as GPX after editing them?

Yes. TrailNote supports GPX export so the route stays portable for backups, downstream apps, and GPS workflows.

Does GPX planning also support markers and notes?

Yes. GPX fits into a larger project workflow where routes, waypoints, notes, markers, and map annotations stay organized together.
