Isle of Wight Walkers' Map at 32k scale with challenge routes and walking trails highlighted. OS 50k scale mapping is expanded in size to produce a 32k map. The OS features, text and logos are now 50% larger making them much easier to read under outdoor conditions. Isle of Wight Challenge Route (66 miles) is specially highlighted in green and white so that the route stands out against the OS background map. Then we add the Earl Mountbatten Hospice's Walk (26.5 miles) highlighted in gold and white. A large range of gps surveyed walking trails are then highlighted in grey and white. The result is an easy to read `OSlike' map with walking trails specially highlighted. We then split the island into East (cover side) and West (reverse side) with a ten mile common overlap to the two sides; meaning you will only have to turn the map over if you are undertaking the longest Challenge or Earl Mountbatten routes. The result is a double sided 840mm by 694mm OSlike Super-Durable Map. We then print the map design on a 100 micron plastic substrate using a special UV curing inks process on the UK's only press capable of using this latest technology. The printed map sheets are then folded using a special concertina map fold to its pocket size of 230mm by 120mm. The result is the Isle of Wight Walkers' Map. A lightweight map that is both accurate and easy to read and use. Super-Durable means your map is waterproof and tearproof, and fully recyclable. This map will survive anything your Isle of Wight Challenges can throw at it and afterwards will fold up like new. Buying the Isle of Wight Walkers' Map also entitles you to receive the Custom Map digital edition of the map as a free download from Discovery Walking Guides.

The whole 'Wainwright' Coast to Coast on one double sided, 960mm by 694mm, map sheet. All 193 miles (308 kilometres) of the Wainwright route along with its alternatives are highlighted across 9 map sections at 40k scale. Ordnance Survey accuracy is combined with Tour & Trail map design to produce 40k scale map sections which are easy to read. OS 50k Landranger mapping is expanded to 40k scale making the text and features over 40% larger making them easy to read and understand. Wainwright's C2C walking routes, and their alternatives, are specially highlighted in Tour & Trail style making the routes easy to find on the map and on the ground. Public `Rights of Way' paths and bridleways are also highlighted in Tour & Trail style making them easy to recognise and find. Coast 2 Coast Challenge Map design is then printed on Polyart using 100% oxygenation inks to produce a lightweight, Super-Durable, waterproof map that is tough enough to shrug off the worst that the C2C can subject it to and still fold up like new at the end of each day. In addition to the Super-Durable printed map, Discovery Walking Guides offers you a free `C2C Digital Resources Package'. Simply follow the instructions on the map to receive a download link to the zip file, which contains all 9 map sections as digital Custom Map editions in kmz file format along with 13 gpx waypoint files covering the 13 stages of the C2C. Combining the Super-Durable Map with the Digital Resources Package gives you trouble free navigation for the whole C2C Challenge route from St Bees to Robin Hood's Bay.

National 3 Peaks Challenge Maps. Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon at 20k scale. Waterproof, tearproof and 100% recyclable 820mm by 420mm double sided map sheet. Taking OS mapping at 50k scale we expand the mapping to produce 20k scale maps of the three challenge peaks, Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. By expanding the OS mapping the features of names, roads, tracks and trails are more than doubled in size making them easier to read under Challenge conditions. We then add the Challenge Routes, specially highlighted to make them stand out against the OS map background information and add in additional information that will help your challenge. Each map covers the region to show the access roads as well as the walking routes. Ben Nevis includes the Glen Nevis Information Centre starting point and Glen Nevis Youth Hostel starting point. Scafell Pike includes the Wasdale and Seathwaite Challenge Routes. Snowdon includes the Pyg Track, Miners Track and Llamberis Challenge Routes. Each peak is a 420mm by 420mm OSlike map mounted on a double sided map sheet of 840mm by 420mm.

The result is a lightweight map that is both waterproof and tearproof, and fully recyclable, that will survive anything your 3 Peaks Challenge can throw at it and afterwards will fold up like new.
