Adding a waypoint to an already published trail
Have you forgotten to add a Waypoint to a route that you have already published?
You can add waypoints to trails you have already uploaded without losing any information with the
grouping / ungrouping tool offered on the Wikiloc website.
While uploading a trail Wikiloc, if this one has a track and one or more waypoints, those will appear as a "grouping" of track + waypoints.
If you've forgotten to create a waypoint at the time of recording or just want to add more, you can follow these steps:
If you've forgotten to create a waypoint at the time of recording or just want to add more, you can follow these steps:
- If you already have the waypoint in a .gpx file (or another valid file), upload it to Wikiloc and jump to step 3
- If you know the exact location of the waypoint/s:
- Create a route manually using Wikiloc web's trail creating tool.
- Don't worry about the trail, the important thing is the waypoint. You can create a short invented and fictional itinerary around the area, mark the waypoints and save the route without any further information.
- Once you have uploaded the trail, locate this new route on your "trail list" of your profile, and click on "ungroup" (now the itinerary and each waypoint will appear separately).
- Delete the itinerary of that new route.
- Group the original itinerary with the original waypoints and the new ones you want to add. Instructions at the end of this article.
