Aside of built-in profiles, there is many custom user peofiles, with very
different preferences from road bikes to very crazy MTB bikes.
See e.g. https://GitHub.com/poutnikl/Brouter-profiles/wiki
where there are many of mine
plus references to others.

I looked at the web interface. Using fast bike low traffic it took me
along a fairly major narrow four lane highway that has a higher speed limit
than the local residential roads for most of the way. It might have been
the shortest route but not a good one for cycling.
Treking did better but to be honest even that one took me along highways I
would normally avoid.
Locally we have lots of parks with for the most part paved paths that
cycling is permitted on and I much prefer to use these where possible.
The built in OSMand router actually picked out the route closest to the one
I'd like to use but thanks for the suggestion. I'll pull it into the
device and see how it does when I play with it.
Thanks John

I ride a recumbent trike so width can be an issue and so can ground
clearance.
However I recently plotted a route and the path it selected involved a
path through a park that went down a gulley, so very steep up and down
portions, and additionally it was earth so after some recent rainfall the
back wheel just spun.
I'd like to tag the path so that cycle routing will avoid it unless you
are riding a mountain bike.
Suggestions other than buy a mountain bike please.
There is another path locally more suited to mountain goats than bikes so
again suggestions on tagging.
Are there any settings I can use on OSMand to say keep me on gentle paths
and roads?
Thanks John
Do not use Osmand bike routing but the BRouter one. Osmand routing can
avoid unpaved roads but it won't take route profile (up and downs) in the
calculation.
You can set up Osmand so that it will use the BRouter just like the
internal routing, but the profiles are better set up for bike. There are
several proifles you can choose from. There is special profile for recumbent
trike.
You'll need download BRouter and download additonal data, but after set
up, everything will work just like it does now. Only the routing for
bicycle will be much better.
You can try if the routing would be what you want here
<http://brouter.de/brouter-web/#zoom=11&lat=48.8651&lon=14.1603&layer=OpenStreetMap&lonlats=&nogos=&profile=vm-forum-velomobil-schnell&alternativeidx=0&format=geojson>.
Try first the profile I have preselected for you, it should be nearest to
what you want. Try the route you had problems with to see, if this improves
the routing.
Come back if this would be something you want to use and you need help
with the setup.
