Hey @Hasse,
You may not be able to see all segments because the segments shown in the given area based on many factors. Zooming in, zooming out, or enter a location, and Strava will offer the most popular segments in that area. For more information regarding our Segment Explore Feature please take a look at our support article here.
As for the current design of the Segment Explore page, we appreciate you for sharing your feedback.
When @Hasse wrote that the zooming feature didn't work (no new segments appeared when zooming in) but it seems this has been mostly rectified. There can still be areas where contrary to the former version of the web version of "explore segments" not a single segment is shown when zooming in even though there are some. But it's very seldom now and this largely unexplained "popular segments" ranking seems to regard a lot more segments than last week.
Hi Bryant!
My problem is that I'm much too slow and too weak to be able to go KOM-hunting on the most popular segments. I want to find the segments that not too many have ridden, otherwise I will have as much success as if I try to take on Pogacar or MVP!
Hi Bryant.
There are still a lot of existing segments not showing up on the segment map feature. Zooming in/out don´t help. If Strava is only showing the most popular segments, how will new segments ever become popular? I like to explore and find new places to ride and finding new segments would make it a lot more fun. Hope you can make an update and show all segments, not just the most popular ones. Regards.
Yes! Same question. Just updated the app and iPhone - and literally NO segments are showing up in well ridden areas! I use these to see if an area is safe to ride (current leaderboard dates) and for sure to push myself to QOMs and too 10s - this update is awful - why would they do this? Looks like TrailForks might be a better option at this point. Sad. 😕😕
Is there any option to see segments at all, on the app? I just updated and NO segment option in the maps page, no orange lines at all. This totally defeats the purpose of Strava - unless it’s more about social media than sport now.
How do I search for segment names in the web application? It seems it is no longer available.
@PyrateParadox - They just changed it a bit, but segments are still there. Click on the maps button at the bottom of the screen. On the maps screen, there should be 4 buttons across the top of the page (Routes, Length, Elevation, and Surface). Click on the word "routes" and it should have a popup menu where you can select from Routes or Segments.
How do I search for a segment by segment name? This capability does not seem to be available from the Strava web page any more from the Explore Segments (this is a map visual search only) or anywhere else.
In the web you click on the zoom symbol and then you can select segments:
Why they replaced an immediately visible search button by an unremarkable symbol so much people overlook I don't know, there is still more than enough place.
Thank you! It was invisible to me 😉 😉 Also confusing with the 'search for location' bar right below it.
So according to the article, it is now only available on the website? Not anymore from the app?
Segments are the best way to do fartlek runs, and personnaly, I am more on my phone than on my desktop… is that planned to recreate the dedicated section in the app?
best
No, it's still working on the app, only it only shows "the most popular" (whatever that means) segments. Choose Maps, then click on Routes in the upper left and choose Segments instead.
Indeed, found the Segments in the "Routes" dropdown, thanks. I have suggested some filtering options on segments as new Ideas, I would love to see the segments I am NOT in the Top X for example
The way Strava does segments now is a huge step backwards. Who takes away one of a sites most loved feature, or severely limits it? Do I have to now ride or run an area to find out what segments are on it? Does ANYONE like the new version??
