Wanderreitkarte

The Wanderreitkarte is a website for planning trips based on OpenStreetMap maps. Not only can routes be planned, but the respective elevation gains can also be displayed. With the Wanderreitkarte, trips can be planned on the PC without needing to have software like Garmin Basecamp or similar installed on the PC.
