Your creation may be rejected if it is too similar to an already published route. The moderation team ensures that each route provides a genuine novelty and enriches the catalogue.
Reason for rejection
Your route is identical to more than 70% of an existing route or several routes already visible on the app.
In this case, the creation is not published to avoid content duplication.
Tips for your future creations
To increase your chances of approval:
check before submitting that the itinerary does not already exist in the app,
try to provide a variant (different loop, modified start/end points, new points of interest).
Loyalty points
Even if your creation is rejected, your loyalty points will still be credited as long as the activity was carried out in the field.
For more information on accumulation rules, see the dedicated article: How to earn loyalty points with Decathlon Outdoor?
Photo sharing
If you added photos during your recording, we would like to keep them to enrich the already existing route. This allows the community to benefit from additional information.
If you do not wish to share your photos, you can let us know via the contact form.
