GPX – detailed GPX files (Slow!)*

Download detailed electronic route files here

From the table at the bottom of this page, you can download electronic files which contain all or parts of the route that I walked.   Before you start downloading, you might want to read the “points to note“, on the GPX overview page.

If you want to follow in my footsteps and hike all or part of my route, these files can be uploaded to handheld GPS devices, or smartphones with appropriate apps (like “ViewRanger” or “My Tracks“) and used with suitable electronic maps.

If you’re just interested in seeing where I went, the GPX files can be dragged and dropped into Google Earth or a variety of other freeware GPX-viewer programs.   Many of these allow you the option of zooming in and choosing satellite or map views.   I find “GPS Visualizer” a very good on-line tool.   Alternatively, just go to the “Day-by-day” page on this website and click “MAP” at the left hand side to view the relevant day’s track directly on this website.
Check the map below to work out which part of the walk you want to download (pinch and zoom the image if you’re viewing on a device with a small screen), then go to the table underneath it and click on the appropriate button to start the download.

NOTE: If you’re downloading these files on an Android device and viewing them using an app like “My Tracks”, you’ll find that the Route files won’t display properly.   Just use the Track files instead, which will be fine.

 

Overnights map

The table below includes daily track (Trk) and route (Rte) GPX files – the routes can be downloaded with either Imperial (Rte(I)) or Metric (Rte(M)) waypoint data.   The differences between these types of file is explained above.   Just press the appropriate button from the right hand columns of the table to download the file.
