A series of 403 detailed topographic maps from the Ordnance Survey, covering every part of England, Scotland and Wales at a scale of 1/25.000. Ideal for walking and other outdoor pursuits it includes National Trails and selected other long-distance paths , Recreational Paths, picnic areas, viewpoints and selected places of interest. In addition, theres Rights of Way information for England and Wales (except for Scotland where different laws apply). Some sheets for popular areas like the National Parks, are still branded as Outdoor Leisure (OL) maps, but are now included in this series as the cartography is the same as that in the Explorer Maps. These highly detailed maps show all the administrative boundaries, settlements as small as isolated farms, road network down to unfenced roads and country tracks, and field boundaries (hedges and dry stone walls) which make navigation across the countryside much easier. Steep gradients on roads are indicated. Various landmarks, eg. Power lines, archaeological sites, windmills, churches and lighthouses are shown, and additional graphics indicate natural terrain features such as cliffs, scree, mud and vegetation variations. The maps are fully GPS compatible. Tourist information includes caravan and camp sites, Park & Ride locations, recreation/leisure/sport centers, museums, historic buildings, English Heritage and National Trust sites, rural pubs, etc. The map legend is in English only, except for the tourist information content which is also in French and German. Each title is also available in a waterproof and tear-resistant version.
