Wikiloc's aim is to help you "share and discover GPS tracks and waypoints from around the World in an easy way," i.e., it is a wiki for trails - walking trails, cycling trails, climbing trails, mountain bike trails and many more, not just in Spain and Portugal, but practically everywhere in the world. Wikiloc's founder, Jordi L. Ramot, is a Spanish software engineer and expert in all things geospatial and enthusiastic trail-beater. At the time of writing, Wikiloc has nearly 60,000 trails. Whether or not you use it to plan an excursion, it is tremendous fun (and if you are GPS-handicapped and want to contribute, you can always upload your route in kml format).
