Strava poster

Turn your Strava run into framed wall art

Export the GPX from your Strava activity and Cairn sets your exact line over the real map you ran, with your distance, elevation, and time printed beneath it. Museum-grade paper, archival inks, framed if you like.

Make your keepsakeFrom $45

Drop a GPX. No account, no sign-up. Works with your Strava export.

Framed Strava run poster: a dark terrain map of a Highland marathon route with the ember route line and stats beneath it.

Your real map, not a flat line

Cairn keeps the actual streets, trails, and terrain you covered as the art. Your route reads as the place you ran, not an abstract squiggle on a colour field.

Straight from your Strava export

Tap the three dots on any Strava activity, export the GPX, and drop the file in. We read your line and your stats automatically, no typing.

Made to last

Pressed on museum-grade matte paper with archival pigment inks, in a solid wood frame with an acid-free mat if you choose the Framed Edition.

From the finish line to your wall, in three moves.

No app to learn, no measuring, no typing your stats. The route does the talking.

    Drop your route

    Upload the GPX from your watch or app. We read the line and the numbers in seconds.

  2. 02

    Shape it

    Place your route on the map, pick a style, set your labels, choose what the wall remembers. All on your phone.

  3. 03

    We print and ship

    Pressed on museum-grade paper with archival inks, framed if you like, sent to your door.

The route is the art

The line you drew, over the ground you covered.

Your GPS line runs bright across a real map of the place you moved through, restyled into our warm terrain look so the route stays the hero. Deep pine for the land, chalk for the paper, ember for the path.

Below it sits the elevation you climbed and the stats that made the day yours: distance, moving time, pace, date. Nothing borrowed, nothing faked. The proof is the picture.

Pan and zoom it. Scroll and the same line restyles.

From a Strava activity to art on the wall

Most route prints flatten your run into a coloured line on an empty background. Cairn does the opposite: your line sits on a real Mapbox basemap, so the print actually looks like the city, coast, or mountains you moved through. That is the difference between a graphic and a keepsake.

To make one, open the activity in Strava, choose Export GPX, and upload that file here. The creator reads your route, distance, elevation gain, and moving time, draws the line with a clean casing and an ember finish dot, and lets you shape the map style and labels on your phone in a couple of minutes.

Then choose your size and finish. A Small print for a desk, a Medium for the wall above it, or a Large framed edition for the hallway where everyone sees it. The same route can carry across a tee, a hoodie, and a mug, so one run becomes the whole shelf.

The Collection

One route, the whole shelf.

The finish that earned a frame.

Trained eighteen months for Boston and the medal lives in a drawer. The print lives over my desk. I see every turn of the course before every long run.

Gave my dad his first century ride for his sixtieth. He stood in the kitchen tracing the route across the valley for my mom. That was the gift.

The swim across the lake felt like it happened to someone else until it was on the wall, the whole shoreline laid out. Now it's the first thing guests ask about.

Questions, answered.

How do I turn my Strava run into a poster?+

Open the activity in Strava, tap the three dots, and choose Export GPX. Upload that file to the Cairn creator and your exact route is mapped over the real terrain you ran, with your stats set beneath it. No account is needed.

Can Cairn connect to Strava directly?+

Direct Strava connect is on the way. For now the GPX export from Strava works perfectly and takes about a minute. Cairn is an independent print studio and is not affiliated with Strava.

What does a Strava poster cost?+

Prints start at $45 for the Small size, $65 for Medium, and $95 for Large. The Framed Edition runs from $95 to $215 by size, ready to hang. Prices are shown up front before you order.

Which activities can I print?+

Any GPS-recorded activity: runs, rides, hikes, swims, and races. If it exported as a GPX track, Cairn can map it.

Is my Strava data kept private?+

Yes. Your GPX stays tied to your order and is never sold, published, or shared, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.
