🗺️ Meet the Pakiki Route Architect
The ultimate spreadsheet-powered planner built by bikepackers, for bikepackers.
Tired of fighting with standard map apps that try to route your gravel adventure onto a busy highway? We were too. That is why we built the Pakiki Route Architect.
We took the simplicity of a spreadsheet and supercharged it with a custom routing engine designed specifically for off-road cycling. Whether you are connecting singletrack, linking up backcountry huts, or planning a multi-day epic, this tool does the heavy lifting so you can focus on the ride.
What this free tool can do:
- 🚲 Smart Cycle Routing: Type in your Start, Waypoints, and End locations, and the sheet instantly calculates your daily distance and ride time.
- 🥾 “Hike-a-Bike” Fallback: Trying to route through deep backcountry like the Oteake Conservation Park? If a trail isn’t mapped for bikes, our engine automatically falls back to pedestrian routing so you can still connect your route.
- 🏔️ Interactive Elevation Visualizer: Highlight any day of your trip and open the custom sidebar to instantly draw a map and a detailed elevation profile.
- 🛰️ One-Click GPX Downloads: Export your daily stages as pristine
.gpxfiles directly from the spreadsheet, ready to load onto your Garmin, Wahoo, or phone. - 📝 Automated Trip Dossier: Click one button, and the Architect will generate a fully formatted, printable Google Doc containing your daily stats, trail notes, and static map images.
