Step by step

How to convert KML to GPX

  1. 01

    Drop your .kml file

    Open the converter and drop the KML file — parsing happens locally in a Web Worker, so nothing is uploaded.

  2. 02

    Choose GPX as the output

    Pick GPX, reproject to any of 180+ coordinate systems if needed, trim attributes and preview the geometry on a map.

  3. 03

    Download the .gpx file

    Save a single file, or convert a whole batch and download everything as a ZIP. Nothing is stored after the download.

KML to GPX — questions

Is converting KML to GPX really private?

Yes. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using a Web Worker — the KML file is never sent to a server, so it works with confidential data and offline.

Do I need an account to convert KML to GPX?

No. There is no signup, no email and no install. Open the converter, drop the file and download the result.

What happens to attributes and coordinate systems?

GPX has no polygon type: polygon rings are exported as closed tracks. You can also reproject between 180+ coordinate reference systems or add a custom proj4 definition before writing.
