How to play

Find

Pick your next territory

Every route carries distance, elevation and the builder who mapped it. 57 of them are Gruzo Selection - curated by Gruzo. Download the GPX free, no email wall.

Ride

Use whatever computer you own

Garmin, Wahoo, Komoot, Strava - Gruzo does not care. There is no tracking app to install and nothing to start before you roll out.

Verify

Claim it

Upload your file and the route is yours. Follow at least 80% within 40 m and it counts. Your track stays private, only the verified count is public.

Heads up:

Strava and Garmin Connect only export GPX from their websites, not from the app.

The routes are free. The recognition is the product.

GPX files exist on every platform, and that is fine. What does not exist anywhere else is a record of the gravel you have actually ridden - 20 levels across 5 tiers, an exploration score and badges.

No speed leaderboards. No fastest times. No buying XP, no buying levels - not now, not later.
