Get cycling directions in Maps on iPad
In the Maps app , you can get detailed cycling directions. Maps offers routes on bike paths, bike lanes, and bike-friendly roads (when available). You can preview the elevation for your ride, check how busy a road is, and choose a route that best avoids hills.
Note: Features for Wi-Fi + Cellular models require a cellular data plan and Cellular Data turned on in Settings > Maps.

Note: Cycling directions are available in select areas. Features vary by country and region. See the iOS and iPadOS Feature Availability website.
Get directions for cycling
Do one of the following:
Say something like “Hey Siri, give me cycling directions home.” Learn how to use Siri.
Tap your destination (such as a search result in Maps or a landmark on a map), or touch and hold anywhere on the map, then tap the directions button.
When a suggested route appears, you can do the following:
Switch to cycling directions: If cycling isn’t your default mode of travel or if you’re viewing a transit map, tap the travel mode button (below the Directions list), then tap
.
Avoid hills or busy roads: Tap Avoid (below the Directions list), choose your options, then tap Apply.
View a route’s directions in a list: On the route card, tap Preview Route (below the estimated travel time). This list is especially helpful if you know you’ll lose your internet connection on your route, because you can refer to these directions even after you lose your connection.
To share the directions, scroll to the bottom of the card, then tap Share.
Choose other route options: You can switch the starting point and destination, select a different starting point or destination, and more. See Select other route options in Maps on iPad.
Tap Go for the route you want.
On Wi-Fi only models, Maps shows turn directions in a banner at the top left. To see the next direction, swipe the banner left. To view a list of upcoming directions, tap the route card at the bottom of the screen, then tap Details.
On Wi-Fi + Cellular models, Maps speaks cycling-specific directions for turns and maneuvers. While following the route, you can share your ETA, find a place to stop, turn off spoken directions, and view a route overview or a list of turns.
End cycling directions before you arrive
Siri: Say something like: “Hey Siri, stop navigating.” Learn how to use Siri.
Or without using Siri, tap the card at the bottom of the screen, then tap End Route.
Turn-by-turn spoken directions on Wi-Fi + Cellular models aren’t available in all countries or regions. See the iOS and iPadOS Feature Availability website.
