A "Recommended" route is an itinerary considered particularly beautiful or suitable for recreational use. At RouteYou, we like to promote the use of high‑quality routes and acknowledge the hard work of users who create them. Recommended routes therefore get an extra boost and are clearly highlighted so that other users can easily find them. When searching for routes, Recommended ones appear by default at the top of the results.
A route gets the "Recommended"
label when it has a score of
at least 3 stars.
Check the evaluation criteria we use.
