Route planner showing % gradients for clmbs

[Slawek]

Does anyone know of a website or software that allows plotting a route while showing % gradient for climbs?

There are a lot of places showing elevation profile but tbh I found it but useless - the moment when the route is long and the profile is 'squashed' it really does not say anything.

I know there was a website that apart from elevation profile showed the gradient as well but it has not been working for a very long time.

Any help would be appreciated

bikehike has a button where you can switch from profile to gradient

Not as such but if you do segment search on strava then each of the segments give a %incline

If you have an iPad you can download Route Planner. It shows your mapped out route, and elevation gain.

Also try Mapmyride. It shows routes with elevation gain.

RidewithGPS route planner does. As you build up your route the profile is displayed at the bottom. You can hover your mouse over particular bits of the profile and it will tell you the % grade. Or you can click and select particular hills in the profile to zoom in for a bit more detail.

Thanks everyone a lot, appreciated. The bikehike is probably as close as I can get to what I need. Thanks a lot.

Does that work for you? None of the other transport options work for me, and havent for months. Clicking the cycling button does nothing.

Works for me. Used it recently on my mobile when my legs decided they had enough of al la carte exploring in an area not known to me and wanted to get home by the most direct cycle route.

plotaroute works a treat

Strava, plot a route by riding it, then when you "use route" you get the average gradient, and UCI based classification ( where applicable).

How do you get this info, I can't see it.

Have had a pasty but can only get elevation, not gradients.

This shows it on rwgps, just enable the check box next to the elevation, this is a planned route.

grade is marked on the right of the graph.

Thanks for doing that @Nigelnaturist I actually considered posting exactly the same thing (well ... very similar) myself, but couldn't be bothered.

y.w. only a few mins with a screen grab. if you actually save the ride it will show more detail, it will even show which segment you highlight if its a cat climb, avg grade how far ect....
