How to create your custom sports map print artwork.
To create a custom map print you will need GPX files. A GPX file is a file that contains the route data, speed time etc. Many people record their run, walk, hike or ride via their phones, smart watches and devices like a Apple Watch, Garmin or Wahoo.
Connect To Your Strava Account
If you have a Strava account your can log on and choose your activities. If you can't find the activities or Strava is not connecting - download the GPX files from your Strava Dashboard and it upload manually.
Upload Your GPX Files
If you don't have a Strava account, you can download your GPX files from your activities tracker device like your phone, smart watch or other. Watch this video that will help you export your GPX file from your Apple Watch, for example. Once you have downloaded the GPX file, upload the file to our custom map design creator. If you are looking to upload multiple routes into one custom map print, you can upload multiple files.
Don't Have GPX Files
We have a number of pre-loaded GPX files available. Please check if your run, ride, hike, or adventure is included.
You can create a GPX file from scratch and download using these websites:
