How to make a poster from Komoot

Supported file formats

Komoot exports GPX files. Planned routes export without timestamps; recorded activities include them. Either file works in Route Posters — the route shape is what matters for the poster.

Route Posters supports GPX, TCX, FIT, and KML files — the standard formats exported by GPS watches, cycling computers, and fitness platforms.

Step-by-step: from Komoot to a printed poster

1. 1

   Open the Tour on Komoot

   Go to komoot.com or open the Komoot app and navigate to the Tour (recorded activity or planned route) you want to turn into a poster.

2. 2

   Open the options menu

   On the web, click the ⋯ (three-dot) button near the top of the Tour page. In the app, look for a share or export icon.

3. 3

   Select Export GPX

   Choose "Export GPX" or "Download GPX" from the menu. Komoot may export with or without timestamps depending on whether the Tour was recorded live or planned — both versions work in Route Posters.

4. 4

   Open the Route Posters editor

   Navigate to Route Posters and click "Create poster" to launch the editor.

5. 5

   Drop your GPX file into the editor

   Drag and drop the downloaded .gpx file onto the editor. The route is drawn instantly from the track data.

6. 6

   Customise your poster

   Choose your preferred style, map type, and colour palette. Add or adjust the headline text to match your ride or hike.

7. 7

   Download PNG or print PDF

   Export a print-ready PNG or 300 dpi PDF for home printing or a professional print shop.
