Sightseeing, scenic, park and street routes

Main sights

Sightseeing mode builds a walk or run around mapped attractions while keeping the complete route within the maximum distance you choose. A successful result includes at least two sights verified against the final route line.

• Featured sights are numbered on the map and listed with their type and information link when available.
• You can filter, remove or add discovered sights, then apply the changes together in one recalculation.
• Attraction coverage depends on public map data. If discovery is temporarily unavailable, RouteMate asks you to retry rather than substituting another route type.

Scenic routes

Scenic mode uses available mapped context such as waterfront, foreshore and named scenic corridors. Coverage depends on the completeness of local map data.

Major parks and green spaces

Park mode discovers relevant green areas, then constructs route candidates from mapped public path nodes and adjoining public streets. Green boundaries are never treated as proof of a walkable path.

• Mapped-path adherence and measured green-space exposure are validated.
• Restricted playing areas and golf fairways are avoided.
• If verified park topology is unavailable, RouteMate asks the user to retry instead of quietly returning street-only results.

Street routes

Street mode looks for connected walking networks and genuinely different loop shapes. It does not assume that neighboring provider responses are distinct routes.

Low and High effort

Effort considers climbing, sustained gradient and surface challenge after target and route-feature fit. A High effort choice does not authorize a longer route or a different environment.
