It can, and does (perhaps somewhat overzealously), if you tell it to, and have downloaded the elevation data. What would be cool is if it was possible to tell Osmand to avoid *climbs specifically*, I for one don't mind a little extra brake wear but when it's 30+°c, I *definitely* want the flattest climbs possible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Osmand" group.
