Plan a traffic free cycle route on Google maps

[@Grizzly01]

If only the cycling layer were in any way accurate... In my stretch of the woods, there are plenty of bike paths/trails shown on it that are in reality prohibited to cycling, and conversely lots of actual bike paths that don't show up. Trying to get it edited is an absolute pain, too. Take anything the cycling layer shows you with a large pinch of salt...

Seems to work well if one is creating a cycle route with Google Maps on a computer. The only GMaps I have to work with is on my phone. Using my phone I seem stuck with whatever route GM gives me. I can't figure out how to adjust the route so I ride on the streets I want. Google Maps always puts me on major roads where I do not want to go.

Give Komoot a go. You can plan a route on it (either on the phone app or via a computer browser), and it will navigate you along that actual route, not along what it thinks will be the quickest route.
