I’ve come across a number of interesting sites that allow you to create a route and display it on Google maps.
- WalkJogRun allows you create a site by clicking on a map. You can share the route, search for a route and download a GPX representation of the route.
- TierraWiki lets you directly import a GPX file and add associated details such as photos.
- Gmaps Pedometer is supposed to be similar to WalkJogRun, but I couldn’t get it to work.
- Click-to-route allows you to click on a map to create a track.
A few sites offer scavenger hunt: Waymarking, Geo Caching & then there is Garmin’s MotionBased site for runners.

The link to WalkJogRun is not correct – it should be .net (not .com).
The site is powered by Adobe ColdFusion and was developed by a friend of mine (and, no doubt several other people

Link to WalkJogRun should be changed to ‘www.walkjogrun.net’ ; it is currently incorrectly pointed to .com.
I also couldn’t get Gmaps Pedometer to work.
