Apr 23, 2014 at 14:24 comment added Chris H I'm not aware of a tool that does exactly what you want (hence the comment instead of an answer) but open.mapquest.com/ will at least give you a way of checking the surface. It's based on openstreetmap and most openstreetmap contributors fill in the surface field when uploading a path/road. It allows drag-and-drop manual route planning like google does, and has an elevation option (that's not working for me at the moment).
Apr 23, 2014 at 13:13 comment added PeteH I have the same problem, I've been caught out a couple of times and it always happens (pretty much by definition) on unfamiliar roads. I don't think there is any kind of magic tool/setting, but I have got into the habit of viewing my route in "aerial photography" mode although even that isn't foolproof.
