Draw your travel route on a map — and print it

Enter your stops, choose how you travelled each leg, and download the result as a print-ready map. For photo books, posters and travel write-ups. No sign-up, no install — the tool above is already running.

What the tool does

Stops in seconds

Place search with suggestions — region and country included, so you pick the right Springfield. Or click points straight onto the map.

Every way of travelling

Car, bike and walking follow the real road network. Flights and ferries are drawn as a great circle — the way a flight path genuinely runs across a map.

The route is yours to fix

The router takes the fastest way, not yours. Pull the line onto the road you actually drove — it follows.

Find campsites

Search pitches and motorhome stops in the visible map area or around one of your stops, and take them over as a stop.

What you see is what you get

The preview shows exactly the crop the export will have. Move the map and the export takes your composition.

Print and share

300 dpi for A4 and A3, plus 9:16 and 4:5 for stories and feeds. The sharing formats are always free at full size.

Five steps to a finished map

  1. Add your stops — search for them or click the map.
  2. Pick how you travelled — per leg, between two stops.
  3. Correct the route — pull the line onto your road.
  4. Design it — style, title, colours, format.
  5. Download — as PNG, free or at print quality.

Frequently asked

How do I draw a travel route on a map?

You search for your stops one after another, or click them straight onto the map. Between any two stops you pick how you travelled: car, bike and walking are routed along the road network, flights and ferries are drawn as a curved line. The order can be changed by dragging at any time.

Is RouteInk free?

Yes. Building the map and exporting at screen resolution are free and need no account. Free exports carry a small RouteInk credit. If you want to print the map, you buy a single 300 dpi export without it.

What resolution does the export have?

The print export is 300 dpi. A4 landscape comes to 3508 × 2480 pixels, A3 landscape to 4961 × 3508. That is enough for photo books and posters without soft edges. Story and feed formats export at 1080 pixels on the short edge, which is what every platform re-encodes to.

Why does the calculated route not match the way I actually drove?

The router picks the fastest connection, which is often not the one you took. You can grab the line on the map and pull it onto your road; a waypoint appears there and the route follows it. Clicking the waypoint removes it again.

Is my data stored anywhere?

Your route stays in your browser. There is no account and no database; the project is saved in local browser storage. Place search, routing and map tiles are requested from open services built on OpenStreetMap.

Which map data does it use?

Every map is based on OpenStreetMap. Tiles come from OpenFreeMap, place search from Photon, points of interest through the Overpass API. The attribution is drawn into every export, as the licence requires.
