Cycling tour planner for desktop route design

Use the Tourcraft web designer to shape a multi-day bicycle tour before departure, then continue in the mobile app for daily planning, navigation, progress, and route changes on the road.

Desktop is where the tour gets designed

A serious bicycle tour has too many decisions for a small screen at the start. Tourcraft uses the desktop web app for the big planning work: route anchors, country transitions, ferry sections, service gaps, elevation, route inspiration, and the tradeoffs that decide whether a route becomes a rideable tour.

Shape the route with anchors

Use start, end, and pass-through places to guide the route around towns, regions, ferries, climbs, or long-distance cycling corridors.

Review the touring tradeoffs

Compare route quality, car exposure, surfaces, services, ferries, elevation, and country context before committing to the plan.

Prepare the mobile handoff

The desktop designer prepares the route that the mobile app later uses for daily planning, navigation, progress, and on-road changes.

Plan beyond the shortest path

Tourcraft is built for riders who care about how the route works as a tour, not only whether a line can be drawn between two places.

Common questions

Why plan a bicycle tour on desktop?

Long tours are easier to shape on a large map. Desktop planning gives room for route anchors, country context, ferries, services, elevation, and tradeoffs before the route moves to mobile.

Is the desktop planner the final touring app?

No. The desktop planner is where the route is designed before departure. The mobile app is what riders use during the tour for daily planning, navigation, progress, and route changes.

Can I use Tourcraft for multi-country cycling tours?

Yes. Tourcraft is designed for long-distance bicycle tours where countries, ferries, services, route quality, and daily planning all matter.
