That's the only option.

If you want the file, you'll need to pick the .fit file out of the Courses folder on your computer, after it's been transferred to your device

Thanks. Would be nice to have a button to export to different formats.

Hello, I confirmed that would be great.
The main reason is that some garmin devices are not really compliant with garmin connect. For example, with my Dakota 20, I'm not able to create a course and upload it in my Dakota.

The only solution I found is to create it on Endomondo.com which has the features to export a course in a GPX file format. I'm sure you'll agree to say this is not consistant for garmin product !

thanks for your help.

Take the number at the end (1016524 in this case) and plug it into one of these, and you can download a file for the course directly.

What is the full URL for gpx because on a mac it doesn't stay in the address bar after the download. Thanks

Can't you just right-click the link above and copy the url that way?
