    I suggest adding a layer with ski tracks ( https://openskimap.org/#4/45.23/18.21 ), as auto plot ski.

    This feature would me make premium for sure.

    Thanks for this suggestion Antonio. It may be feasible to create a map layer for ski pistes, but I'm not sure how useful it would be given that our site is aimed at walkers, runners and cyclists. Do you want to use it to plot ski runs?

    Thanks for your response.

    Actually, I'm not plotting ski runs but complete ski tours (I name them as ski safari tours) in Dolomites, northern Italy.

    and

    I'm using the 'Paths' layer that has ski runs drawed with manual plotting, but maybe OpenSkiMap would have more accuracy.

    That's a great use of the site.  I'm going skiing in Cervinia myself in December and would find suggested ski tours like that very useful! Unfortunately I don't think it would be feasible to add ski runs as an auto-plot option though - the maps and the routing are two separate things, so we would only be able to do this if the routing engine we use supported ski routing, which I'm afraid it doesn't.
