can be added and configured under Settings → Hike Screens. When switching to
Hike, the logbook changes to a Hike Log. The routes are saved in the directory
"hikes" in GPX format. A later analysis or statistics of the routes can be found in the
Hike Log. You can also copy routes in GPX format into the "hikes" folder.!
