Collections for Tourism

  • Updated

Collections are a great way to bundle similar routes to share and follow. Group together your area's best road, gravel, or mountain bike routes; or even your best family, public art, or coffee shop routes. Public Collections will be able to be followed by users for easy access on their accounts. Your Tourism Account unlocks free offline maps and voice navigation on all of your routes on our app without any prior approval.

Collections cannot be embedded, but you can create a complementary embed by tagging the routes in each Collection and assembling an embed in your Embed Library and then placing on your website.
