Detailed Review
Bikemap focuses exclusively on cycling, and its about page describes a small team of riders building a global community that creates and shares routes. Premium adds an advanced route planner, offline maps and navigation, and print and export in GPX and KML.
The imprint names Bikemap GmbH, Postgasse 8b, 1010 Vienna, registered at the Handelsgericht Wien (FN 426878 m).
Cycling only
The route planner is optimised by bike type and cycling style, and Premium adds turn-by-turn voice directions and navigation for off-road and undefined paths. If you also hike and run, komoot covers more sports.
Pricing
The Premium page lists €9 per month, €39 per year and a €99 three-year payment that expires without renewal, with a 14-day money-back guarantee. Subscriptions renew automatically for the chosen period, and some features depend on the platform.
Hosting and transfers
The privacy policy names Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL in Luxembourg for web hosting and notes that data may also be transferred to the parent company in the USA under standard contractual clauses.
Limitations to Consider
Bikemap only covers cycling, and the free version is limited because offline maps, voice navigation and GPX export are Premium features. Its privacy policy mentions AWS hosting with possible transfers to the USA. It is not a training load tool, where Tredict goes deeper.
Who Should Use Bikemap
Cyclists who want a European route planner and navigation app and are willing to pay for offline maps.
