Frequently asked

Komoot is a great all-rounder. Rieda is built for one job: you say the ride — distance, how much climbing, quiet roads — and it plans 40 loops from your door, shows you the best three, and tells you honestly what climbing your area can deliver.

You do not have to take our word for it — you can see it. Every loop states how much is paved, how much is gravel and how much is untagged, before you ride. Tap any point on the line and it tells you the surface right there.

Rieda plans rides in the US and 15 European countries. The model was built and tested on German roads — the best-tagged data anywhere — and every example ride we show is real output from the US graph, nothing staged. Anywhere else, tell us on the waiting list: it decides which country comes next.

Both, yes. Gravel with its own cost model that hunts tracks instead of avoiding them — and MTB as tour MTB: forest tracks, long climbs, real descents. Trail-chaining and bike parks deliberately not; the app itself says that limit out loud.

The route prefers small, quiet roads and takes big ones only as a last resort — freeways never. But no planner sees today's traffic. You ride on public roads — your judgment on the spot always has the last word.

Yes. Export a GPX or FIT file with real elevation — Garmin, Wahoo, Karoo and anything else that imports courses.

Planning works in the browser, phone included. For riding, you put the GPX or FIT file on a Garmin, Wahoo or Karoo. There is deliberately no phone turn-by-turn — head units do that better.

Yes. With email or Google. The account keeps your loops together across devices and counts your monthly allowance.

Your loops live in your account so they are on every device — your email address and your routes, nothing else. No ads, nothing sold on, and one click deletes all of it.

Yes, any time, from your account — access runs to the end of the period you paid for. And you keep the ten free loops a month afterwards anyway.
