GPS file conversion

KML to GPX Converter

Choose a KML file, preview the supported points and lines, and download GPX while keeping separate segments intact.

Choose your KML file

Preview supported points and lines, then download GPX.

Free with a Mandro account. Your file is read and converted in your browser, without uploading it to Mandro. It may be kept locally to restore it after sign-in.

Try the sample KML file: one point, two separate lines, and a polygon that will be omitted with a warning. The example is illustrative, not a travel itinerary.

Convert KML to GPX in three steps

  1. Choose a KML file containing points or lines. Folder and MultiGeometry content is supported.
  2. Review the shape preview, counts and omitted-content warnings. The preview has no background map; the download preserves every supported point.
  3. Download the GPX file and check it in your chosen GPX application. The converter preserves geometry rather than recalculating directions.

Need the reverse conversion? Use GPX to KML. To open fresh directions from a GPX file, try GPX to Google Maps; Google Maps may recalculate the path.

Frequently asked questions

Supported KML geometry, segment handling, omissions and file privacy.

Choose an uncompressed .kml file, review the geometry preview and any warnings, then sign in to download the supported content as GPX. Points become waypoints and LineStrings become tracks.

No. Each LineString stays a separate GPX track segment. Lines in the same MultiGeometry placemark share a track, while different placemarks become separate tracks. Disconnected lines are not joined.

Supported points and lines are converted, and the preview lists omitted polygons, overlays, models, Google extension tracks and linked content. Linked files are not fetched. A file containing only unsupported content cannot be downloaded as GPX.

Names and descriptions on supported placemarks are preserved as text. Only altitude marked absolute in KML becomes GPX elevation. Ground-relative and clamped altitudes are omitted with a warning. Styles, custom data, tours and time information are not preserved.

This tool accepts uncompressed KML files up to 10 MB. Extract a .kml file from the KMZ archive on your device first; images and other archive assets are not converted.

No. Parsing, preview and GPX creation run in your browser. Your file may be kept locally to restore it after sign-in. Review the downloaded GPX in your navigation app before travelling.
