This is an attempt at creating a map layer showing roads suitable for "gravel" riding (whatever that means, but people usually talk about wide tired drop bar bikes). that can be rendered on top of any base map.
To do that, we forked CyclOSM and kept removing and changing styles until we arrived at something that suited our needs. Kudos to them for the clean code structure and open sourcing their work!
This style is based on the CyclOSM, which is licensed under BSD-3-Clause license. Everything (be it icons or code) not listed explicitly below should be consider as available under this license.
The contours and elevation lines render is based on the very good work and code available from OpenTopoMap.
The colors used in the palette.mss file are based on the
Hydda
style, licensed under Apache License 2.0.
The icons in symbols/osm-bright-gl-style are taken from the OSM Bright GL
style
and are licensed under Creative Commons BY 4.0.
The icons in symbols/openstreetmap-carto are taken from the
OpenStreetMap-carto
style and are licensed under CC0 public domain.
The icons in symbols/osmandapp are taken from the
OsmAnd app resources.
The inner tube bicycle icon is based on https://www.flaticon.com/free-icon/inner-tube_1575936.
following readme is from the https://github.com/cyclosm/cyclosm-cartocss-style repo to give more context in config and running the docker container.
This is work in progress. Most lines need to be deleted or changed.
a CartoCSS map style designed with gravel cycling in mind. It leverages OpenStreetMap data to create a beautiful and practical overlay!
todo: insert pic of overlay. All gravel roads are as Red lines.
Adapt to CX Berlin. If they are ever back again!
A demonstration of this style is available at https://cyclosm.org.
The tile server url is
https://{s}.tile-cyclosm.openstreetmap.fr/cyclosm/{z}/{x}/{y}.png. Tiles can
be reused under the general OpenStreetMap tile usage
policy.
The map is available by default in the following smartphone applications:
The tile server is provided by OpenStreetMap-France, many thanks to them for the support!

CyclOSM is a new cycle-oriented render. Contrary to OpenCycleMap, this render is free and open-source software and aims at being more complete to take into account a wider diversity of cycling habits.
In urban areas, it renders the main different types of cycle tracks and lanes, on each side of the road, for helping you draw your bike to work route. It also features essential POIs as well as bicycle parking spots or spots shared with motorbikes, specific infrastructure (elevators / ramps), road speeds or surfaces to avoid streets with pavings, bumpers and bike boxes, etc.
The same render also lets you visualize main bicycle touring routes as well as essential POIs when touring (emergency services, shelters, tourism, shops).

Render:
- Cycleways track, lanes, cycle-bus lanes
- Motor oneway - two way for bicycle
- Cycle routes (local, regional, national, international)
- Parking for bicycle (or motorcycle parking open to bicycle)
- Steps with bicycle friendly ramp
- Bicycle shop and repair stations
- First aid amenities : shelter, hospital, pharmacy, police station, water, food store
- Travel amenities : camping, hotel, train station, museum, picnic table, peaks...
- Emphasis on low speed roads (<= 30km/h)
- Elevation curves and shading
- Smoothness of the roads
- Traffic calming
- …
