The project
About TwistAtlas
TwistAtlas begins with motorcycle route guides across the Adriatic, the Dinarides, and the western Balkans. The long-term idea is an atlas of roads and riding experiences shared by the people who know them.
Who stands behind the project
TwistAtlas is maintained as a small, repository-backed editorial project. Route facts, source records, GPX files, review dates, and publication changes are managed as versioned content rather than as user-submitted listings.
The project is still a pilot. Its current scope is a compact catalogue of selected motorcycle routes, not comprehensive coverage of every road in the region.
Where we are going
We want riders to be able to create and publish routes, share accounts and photographs from completed rides, and learn from each other through conversation and appreciation. Over time, useful contributions could earn recognition, and a mobile app could make the atlas easier to use on the road.
Those community features are planned, not available in this pilot. Today, the route collection is prepared by the editorial team. The distinction between a route guide and one rider's experience will remain important as the project grows.
What we publish
A route guide may include distance, estimated ride time, surfaces, difficulty, season, practical stops, a map, elevation information, and a GPX download. Missing research stays missing rather than being filled with unsupported assumptions.
Every public route states its research or verification method and the date of its last review. The method belongs to that individual route; TwistAtlas does not claim that the whole catalogue has been personally ridden or verified.
What TwistAtlas is not
TwistAtlas is not a road authority, emergency service, tour operator, or turn-by-turn navigation product. A published route is not a promise that a road is open, lawful for every vehicle, or safe in current weather and traffic conditions.
Riders remain responsible for checking official road, border, ferry, park, and weather information before departure and for making decisions appropriate to their experience, motorcycle, and conditions.
Transparency by design
Read how routes are researched and verified, including what each public status means. You can also read how route information is kept current.
