20 quid a YEAR! But you can get reasonable maps on free apps, why spend any money at all? :scared:

I suppose some people need to get rid of it somehow! :lol-053:

Any free apps that show public footpaths, bridleways etc?

Its not for me...but this is what i like about the forum...good people take time to let other members know about things that might interest them. So thank you for posting.

Not a bad app at all, but as I have invested mucho $$$ in Memory Map products I will stick with them. £20 / year would have been better value, though - I had to pay £30 just for the MM Android app without any maps

I use Walkhighlands: Scotland walks and accommodation It's not just Scotland covers whole of Uk ...

You do have to register and its FREE. It also lets you print maps which is rather nice of them :wave:

Sort of. 4U maps run on Locus maps and give you some free - only lake district in the UK but I used the free Tenerife map on a walking holiday.

I used to use Mapyx on my PC and found it great. You could download and print small maps very cheaply and it worked a treat with my GPS, enabling me to compile a data base of walks recorded on the 'breadcrumb' feature as well as planning routes and entering waypoints. I now use a Mac and lost that facility. I look forward to the new platform and will try it out asap.

thanks for post on maps very good ,though i get free on linux called gps drive.:wave:

If you are a dedicated walker, then £20 a year is a pretty reasonable price for a regularly updated OS mapping system.

Thanks for the heads-up on this
