Split GPX file?
I have a GPX file that has about 5400 elements in it. The max in GAIA GPS (on the website at least) is 1000. So I would like to split this thing up into, say, 6 files.
Every tool I am trying doesn't seem to work. GPS Track Editor, if I open the file, it shows the tracks, but not any of the waypoints (which I need). Adze seems to be an Apple-only tool (I am on Windows). GPX.STUDIO site can display all of the data points, but I cannot seem to export anything.
Anyone know of a tool that actually works? I just want to break the file up into small enough slices to import to GAIA. Thanks!

If you have some basic coding knowledge, you could make six more copies of the original file. Leave the original as is for safety. Then one by one open the other six copies in WordPad and delete a different 4500 waypoints in each and save, leaving you with six gpx files with 900 waypoints in each. Keeping track of where you are in each successive file won’t be easy.

Thank you Lucifur. Yes, that was going to be my last resort if I could not find a tool to split it up - to copy it off to a bunch of files, leave the header and footer of the XML in place, but cut down the iterated elements for the data points to a limit in each file. Painstaking, but possible.

I use the following to split my GPX files. It is a little bit of manual process, but it works great for snowboarding runs because you can see the elevation changes to determine start/end. Might not work for something not as clear cut.
