## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Komoot Public Tour API Scraper

Fetch full GPX-grade route data from Komoot's public v007 API — geometry, elevation profiles, surfaces, way types, difficulty, and creator metadata — for any public tour by ID or via automatic sitemap discovery.

### What it does

Komoot hosts 200M+ public outdoor routes (hikes, bike tours, trail runs, and more). This actor calls the stable `v007` JSON API, which returns machine-readable data for any public tour without authentication:

- **Full path geometry** — all GPS waypoints with lat/lng/altitude/time offset
- **Surface breakdown** — segmented list of surface types (asphalt, gravel, dirt, singletrack, etc.)
- **Way type breakdown** — road, path, ferry, etc. per segment
- **Elevation** — cumulative gain and loss in metres
- **Difficulty** — easy / moderate / difficult with fitness and technical sub-grades
- **Creator** — display name of the tour author

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `tourIds` | array | `["1056563938", "1041217742", "380802822"]` | Numeric Komoot tour IDs. Extract from `komoot.com/smarttour/e{ID}/...` or `komoot.com/tour/{ID}` URLs. Leave empty to discover tours from the sitemap. |
| `maxItems` | integer | `10` | Maximum number of tours to fetch. Limits sitemap-discovery runs; ignored when `tourIds` are provided (all supplied IDs are fetched). |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | (none) | Optional proxy. Residential proxy is recommended for bulk runs exceeding a few hundred tours per hour. |

#### Finding tour IDs

Komoot tour IDs are the numeric portion of tour URLs:

| URL format | ID |
|------------|----|
| `komoot.com/smarttour/e1056563938/pacific-crest-trail` | `1056563938` |
| `komoot.com/tour/1041217742` | `1041217742` |

You can also leave `tourIds` empty — the actor will discover IDs from the English sitemap and return up to `maxItems` tours.

### Output

Each dataset record contains:

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `tour_id` | string | Numeric Komoot tour ID |
| `name` | string | Tour title |
| `tour_type` | string | `tour_recorded` or `tour_planned` |
| `sport` | string | Activity type (`hike`, `touringbicycle`, `mountaineering`, etc.) |
| `status` | string | Visibility (`public`) |
| `distance_m` | number | Total distance in metres |
| `duration_s` | number | Total duration in seconds |
| `elevation_up_m` | number | Cumulative elevation gain in metres |
| `elevation_down_m` | number | Cumulative elevation loss in metres |
| `start_lat` | number | Start point latitude |
| `start_lng` | number | Start point longitude |
| `start_alt` | number | Start point altitude in metres |
| `difficulty_grade` | string | `easy`, `moderate`, or `difficult` |
| `date` | string | Upload/creation date (ISO 8601) |
| `creator_display_name` | string | Tour creator's display name |
| `coordinates_count` | number | Number of GPS waypoints |
| `coordinates_json` | string | JSON array of `{lat, lng, alt, t}` waypoints |
| `way_types_json` | string | JSON array of way-type segments |
| `surfaces_json` | string | JSON array of surface segments |
| `highlights_count` | number | Number of highlights/POIs |
| `tour_url` | string | Canonical komoot.com tour URL |

#### Sample record

```json
{
  "tour_id": "1056563938",
  "name": "Pacific Crest Trail: Agua Caliente Creek",
  "tour_type": "tour_planned",
  "sport": "hike",
  "status": "public",
  "distance_m": 15486.13,
  "duration_s": 15379,

  "creator_display_name": "komoot",
  "coordinates_count": 587,
  "coordinates_json": "[{\"lat\":33.28314,\"lng\":-116.634536,\"alt\":952.9,\"t\":0},...]",
  "way_types_json": "[{\"from\":0,\"to\":1,\"element\":\"wt#way\"},...]",
  "surfaces_json": "[{\"from\":0,\"to\":10,\"element\":\"sf#asphalt\"},...]",
  "highlights_count": 0,
  "tour_url": "https://www.komoot.com/tour/1056563938"
}
````

### Use cases

- Building trail databases or route recommendation systems
- GIS analysis of hiking/cycling infrastructure
- Fitness app integrations that need GPX-grade route data
- Research on outdoor activity patterns by region, sport, or difficulty
- Competitive intelligence on popular trail destinations

### Technical notes

- Fetches from the public `v007` HAL+JSON API — no authentication required for public tours
- Strictly scoped to `status: public` tours — private tours are not accessible
- Default rate: one request per 0.8 seconds, respecting Komoot's servers
- Residential proxy is optional for normal volumes; recommended above a few hundred tours per hour
