GPX TRK TYPE

[ccsalway]

Can anyone please provide me a list of activity types for the GPX files?  The example below has a number 4... which, as its my GPX, means hiking.

I thought it would line up with the FIT activity value but far from it, and by the looks of it, some activities like WheelChair and RollerSki arent even in FIT.

The literature at the link given does not identify the valid values (and semantic meaning) that Strava expects for the <type> element of the <trk> element, which is what the question is about.  I too am searching for how to import a GPX as a 'Trail Run', instead of a 'Ride', but have only found that <type>Run</type> at least avoids it being a cycling route but fails to to import it as the desired type of route.

Hello ccsalway,

Thank you for your post. Take a look at our documentation on Uploading to Strava.
