Every adventure and every adventurer is different so we’ve made it even easier to find a Tour tailored to you. Perhaps you’re planning a Sunday stroll with the family, maybe you’re after a hilly ride because you love those descents, perhaps you’ve got two hours free and you’re after an off-road run – our new filters mean that narrowing down your choices is quick. 

You can now filter Tours on the Discover list and the new map interface by: 

• Distance

With the new Send to Device button, you can send a Tour straight to the front of your Garmin, thanks to the komoot app on Garmin, available through Connect IQ™. This means you don’t need to scroll through the planned Tours on your Garmin device – the Tour you want will pop straight up whether you plotted it today or two months ago. 

That’s not all, if you have a Garmin smartwatch with komoot on Connect IQ and are using komoot’s navigation mode, … Continue reading

When you plan routes that resemble spaghetti, detour off the trail to visit a cake shop, or head along the same road twice in different directions, navigation can get a little tricky. We’ve been busy learning from these complications and have improved our turn-by-turn directions, so Tours on Android mobile devices should lead you where you want to go even if you’ve plotted a loop-the-loop.

If you’re using the map for Tour navigation on mobile, you can now see your next turn with the quickest of glances. We’ve created a large turn arrow on the Tour line that makes it clear and easy to see where you’re going next. This means more time enjoying the scenery and less time looking at the app.

When you plan or import a circular Tour, the route will either run clockwise or counterclockwise. That means it can be easy to set off in the wrong direction for your Tour. To solve this, we’ve updated our direction detection so no matter what shape route you’re embarking on, you’ll now be notified the moment you start going in the wrong direction. 

When the app detects you’re going the opposite way, it’ll ask you if you want to reverse the … Continue reading

With improved Tour line resolution, now you can see even the smaller twists and turns in your planned route. You’ll get a better overall impression of the bends in a trail while you navigate with komoot or non-Garmin partner devices, and the awesome knock-on effect is that both the tour length estimation and the elevation profile are more accurate now too.

To make your experience of navigating Tours on your Garmin device even more seamless, we’ve made some significant improvements to the app! Firstly, we’ve implemented a brand-new komoot-specific navigation interface that let’s you better track your adventures on your Garmin. From now on, simply select komoot as your preferred navigation mode the next time you start a Tour on your watch, and enjoy turn-by-turn navigation arrows, a clearer … Continue reading
