Google Maps importing PGX file

Hi all

I often plan my cycle routes in bikehike and create a gpx file.

I was wondering if that can be imported in google maps and then navigate with it ?

If not are there any other map based system which would be suitable to use.

Many thanks for your time

Regards

Mike

You'll be using Google "My Maps" to which you upload a KML file (use the Gpx2kml converter below) and then navigate via the "New MY Maps" app, you might be able to use the browser, but I'm not sure. https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/new-my- ... 37830?mt=8

There are lots of mapping options, too many to list, but search the site and you'll find lots of discussion about this topic.

Bikehike will also save routes as a kml file, Google's own file format. What Google will let you do with it I've no idea.
