    You are correct, Valhalla is used for routing. Maps are rendered on the ELEMNT, BOLT and ROAM with mapsforge, BOLT2 with vtm. To look at map files there is cruiser cruiser (mapsforge) and cruiser-gl (vtm). Create updated maps with wahooMapsCreator. There is also some documentation how to add POI's or make a custom theme.

    for an example. It's perfectly smooth. The application is closed source but the underlying renderer (VTM) is LGPL3. The renderer, https://github.com/mapsforge/vtm, is basically an OpenGL alternative for the mapsforge offline maps format and maintained by the same guy (the original mapsforge renderer is arguably a bit slow, struggling to hide its slowness behind cached tile bitmaps).
