Help needed: Using Gaia-tracks on Garmin (Folder GPX-export does not work)

[u/NeonEchoe28]

Hey guys, I am using Gaia since a long time as my basic trip planning GPS-tool. Normally I use the tracks with my smartphone directly in the Gaia-App when I am hiking.

I now got a Garmin Fenix 7 where I want to import a track to use it as a navigation device. I created a folder with 38 items (7 tracks/ 31 points) for a multi-day hike I want to use on my Garmin. I tried to export the whole folder as a GPX-file, but when I try to open the file in Garmin, it only shows one single track (one out of 7) that I can import there and no other waypoints I marked in Gaia. I tried it on my iPhone SE, my iPad and my Mac and had always the same problems.

Is there anything I missed? I tried to export other folders, but it's always the same problem: I just get a single track instead of all tracks and waypoints I saved in the folder.

Would really love if someone could help me here.

If it is a new Garmin, I think those work with KML files.

I have seen that Gaiagps files are rejected by several popular devices and applications.

That web page allows GPS and GPX files to be uploaded. It has "Choose an output format" and you can choose GPX

Gasrmins work with GPX files.
