I have a question regarding the km of the proposed roundtrip compared to the requested length of the roundtrip. I had a look if this had been mentioned before but can not find anything.
We are currently three guys looking into this and we understand that a proposed roundtrip with the same parameters will give different routes for each of us.
what perplexes us is the difference in km. in one particular instance a “requested” roundtrip of 222 km generated a 680km, a 480km and another 450km route
Can anyone shed a light on this massive km difference?
This can happen, especially in regions with a low amount of roads (like mountain areas). That is a side-effect of the way we generate roundtrips.
What you can try is to reduce the avoidance of the same road from 2 to 1. I don’t expect that this will resolve the issue, but might make it less extreme. This requires a Kurviger Tourer membership, you can try this for 7 days for free to see if it helps or not .
The other option is to change the route manually or to disable “avoid using the same roads twice”.
