Byway (B.O.A.T.) maps online?

[+zodiac73]

I did a quick google earlier for an online map of Byways so that I can plan some hides of a decent size that will have a nice long-ish walk or cycle, but wasn't getting anywhere.

 

Mainly I could do with a map of these for Carmarthenshire for now.

 

Any help appresciated, I'm probably just typing the wrong thing into the google search box?

 

Cheers,

You may find this useful to get a rough guide to Public Rights of Way: http://www.getamap.ordnancesurveyleisure.co.uk/

 

Select 'leisure' to display 50k/25k maps

 

Not too sure if you have to pay anything to start route planning?? I dont sub to the above and it looks like I cannot find any coord. You need the coords as a rough guide so that caches can be spaced out on the route - final coords are confimed on site with you GPS once you have placed the cache.

 

There are a variety of tools for route planning.....

1) MemoryMap

2) Basecamp - but you need an underlaying map segment - Old version of Mobile Atlas Creator?

3) If you have a Garmin GPS, then the Discoverer OS maps are good.

There's also http://www.opencyclemap.org/ which has all the national cycle routes and other dedicated cycle routes.

Greetings all - first post

 

Give http://www.trailwise.org.uk/ a try - it covers all users of ROW and is kept reasonably up to date.
