Built for road bikes, ready for any ride
Cyclan was developed for road cycling, but you can plan any bike ride with it. Main roads are always avoided, and the sliders decide how strongly a route favours small roads, tarmac and nature. Set the surface to “paved only” for tarmac alone, or to “any” for gravel and touring bikes.
Automatic loops that suit you
Give a start and a length, and Cyclan finds loops from your own settings, without you setting a single point. You can pick places the loop should pass through and fine-tune every suggestion afterwards.
See the road before you ride
Map layers show which roads are paved, street images show real photos of the road, and satellite images show tracks, woods and fields. That makes planning a route much easier.
Try it for free
Without an account you can plan routes with up to 5 points and search for loops 3 times a day. A free account adds saving, sharing, GPX export and satellite images.
