Multi-Day Itinerary Builder
Turn a long trail into an editable multi-day plan. Split it into balanced daily stages, move the overnight boundaries, then keep one link with GPX, offline maps, and navigation for every day.

How the multi-day itinerary builder works
Upload a GPX for any long trail — a national trail, a hut-to-hut route, a thru-hike, or a custom Planner route — and choose how many days you want. The builder splits the track into balanced stages by estimated time rather than raw distance, so a day with a big climb is not made unfairly long. Each stage shows its distance, ascent, descent and walking time (measured on the day's line by our route analysis), and you can download a GPX for any day or the whole trip as one file with a track per day.
Great for
- Hut-to-hut and refuge itineraries (Tour du Mont Blanc, Haute Route, Alta Via).
- Thru-hikes and long-distance trails (Kungsleden, Laugavegur, GR routes).
- Fastpacking, where balancing daily effort matters more than even distance.
Privacy
Your GPX is parsed and split in your browser. It is uploaded only if you explicitly choose Save & share trip; that creates an unlisted public link that anyone with the URL can open.
Frequently asked questions
How does the multi-day planner split my route?
It balances the days by our quick estimate of time (distance and climb), not just distance, so a big-climb day is not made unfairly long. Each day is then measured on its line, which can show some days longer than others on steep or rough ground: move a night to even them out.
How is the walking time calculated?
Each day's line is measured by TrailSplits' route analysis: the paths it follows, the climb on terrain heights, and our hiking-time model (moving time, no breaks). Until a day is measured, and for running, the time is a quick estimate from distance and climb (about 4.5 km/h plus an hour per 400 m of climb walking). Outside Switzerland the model runs short of the times route operators publish, so treat walking times as optimistic and add for pack weight, ground and breaks.
Can I download a GPX for each day?
Yes. Download any single day, or download the whole itinerary as one GPX with a separate named track per day, in a file your watch or phone app can import.
Is my GPX uploaded anywhere?
It is parsed and split in your browser. Nothing is uploaded unless you choose Save & share trip; then TrailSplits stores one private-link route snapshot and its day boundaries so your group can open the trip.
