Strava has announced that its Points of Interest feature is now visible on all map layers, including the new 3-D terrain style. These two recent products updates are now being brought together to improve routing and on-trail experience for athletes. With this latest update, Strava aims to inspire even more adventure by giving athletes the tools to plan ahead, particularly if they’re exploring a new trail or route.
Points of Interest on 3-D Maps (Updated Map Styles)
- All features are available on both mobile (iOS/Android) and web
- The features are FREE and accessible to all athletes
- App version 224 or higher is required
- How to access: Routes or Record tab, toggle map layers to see 3-D maps
- Trails and crosswalks are more visible on all maps
- Start Points are popular spots that Strava athletes start their activities from, like parking lots or trailheads. If athletes press and hold on a Start Point, the route recommendations will move to a new spot – one that other athletes have used in the past, so athletes know that they are verified
