FlatRoute
A walking route planner for smoother, lower-stress walks

Why flatter walking routes matter
Walking is often chosen because it feels approachable and sustainable. Unexpected elevation can change that quickly, especially for recovery, mobility work, stroller walks, or a long day on your feet while traveling.
Useful for everyday routines
Whether you are fitting in a lunchtime walk, easing back into activity, or planning a low-stress route through a new area, an elevation-aware walking route planner helps you choose a path that matches the kind of outing you want.
