Elevation profile generator for hiking, cycling, and route planning

The CityLabMap Elevation Profile Tool lets users draw a route on an interactive map and calculate distance, maximum elevation, minimum elevation, and total elevation gain. The profile chart helps compare climbs, descents, and terrain changes along the selected path.

Users can search for a starting point, draw a route with the map drawing tool, switch between terrain, standard, and satellite map styles, and download the resulting elevation chart. The tool limits routes to 500 kilometers to keep elevation sampling responsive and reliable.

This page is useful for hiking preparation, cycling route checks, trail planning, geography education, and quickly estimating whether a path crosses steep terrain before sharing or exporting the profile.
