SummitGPX is a professional route hosting and visualisation platform for race organisers, event directors and outdoor brands. It helps you upload, manage, update and share GPX routes without repeatedly sending files to participants.

SummitGPX is built for races, endurance events, expeditions, charities and outdoor organisations that need a simple way to publish accurate route information for participants.

Most routes can be uploaded and published in just a few minutes. Upload your GPX file, customise the route page and start sharing it straight away.
