Getting Started

SummitGPX helps race organisers, event directors and outdoor brands upload, manage, update and share GPX routes without repeatedly sending files to participants.

What can you do with SummitGPX?

  • Import GPX, KML and FIT route files
  • Validate GPX files with the GPX Health Check workflow and understand route processing
  • Create public route pages
  • Download branded QR codes
  • Add checkpoints, aid stations, cut offs and route notes on Pro accounts
  • Display elevation profiles
  • Embed interactive route maps on your own website on Pro accounts
  • Import recipient lists and send trackable route update emails
  • Offer GPX, KML, TCX, FIT, Distance & Ascent Table PDF/CSV and split GPX downloads where supported
  • Choose which route points appear as waypoints or course points on compatible GPS devices and watches

We recommend starting with Creating Your Account, then following the Typical Organiser Workflow and Your First Route to learn the core SummitGPX workflow.
