Meetup organizers can now integrate komoot hiking and outdoor routes directly into their events. This feature allows you to add a komoot link that is automatically displayed as a rich, visual preview on your event page.
👉 This feature is currently in beta.
What is komoot?
komoot is an outdoor planning tool that helps you create and share routes for activities like hiking and other outdoor sports. komoot routes include helpful details such as:
Interactive maps
Elevation profiles and difficulty levels
Distance, duration, and surface type
Points of interest (for example, restaurants, viewpoints, or landmarks)
Tips and recommendations from the komoot community
💡 Adding a komoot route to your event helps members better understand what to expect before they RSVP.
Who can use this feature?
At the moment, komoot integration is available only if:
Your group belongs to the Travel & Outdoor category
You are viewing Meetup on the web (not the mobile apps)
Support for the Meetup mobile apps will be added as part of the full rollout.

You can add a komoot route in either of the following ways:
Option 1: Add the link to your event description
Create or edit your event.
