Wikivoyage:How to use the GPX export feature

The English Wikivoyage contains a feature which enables the users to create GPX files that include all the listings included in specific articles which the users can take with them to use off-line on trips. For example, in this way a user can create in a matter of seconds GPX files for all the Rome city district articles that contain all the points of interest, restaurants, accommodation, etc that exist as of now in the English Wikivoyage for the Rome area that you can use even when there is no Internet connection available. GPX files can be easily loaded in applications such as OsmAnd, Mapy.cz, and Google Earth on your smartphone, tablet, laptop, etc. Alternatively, you can also load the GPX files on dedicated GPS devices.

The GPX format (short for GPS Exchange) is a standard format that allows one to store geodata (usually data recorded via GPS devices/applications) which was developed in 2004 by TopoGrafix. GPX is an open format that can be used without the need to pay any special fees.

GPX files allow users to view points of interest (eg tourist attractions, camping sites, parking lots, etc.) and/or routes (eg the Trans-Siberian Railway, the Inca Trail, etc.) in multiple applications that read GPX files, including most of the dedicated GPS devices.
