|
Please always keep to footpaths, close gates,
keep dogs under control and obey 'Freedom to Roam'
regulations.
Using the GPS
Route downloads: The walking routes use the
.gpx file format. Click the link and then save the
zip file to a folder on your computer.
Double click the zip file and save the .gpx file it
contains into the same folder. Use a GPS
utility program to load the file. 2 free GPS
programs are
EasyGPS
and
GPSTrackmaker. Once you have opened the
.gpx file in
a utility program, connect your GPS to the
computer using a USB lead. Finally use the GPS
functions in the utility program to upload the route
from the program to your GPS.

Using the Google Earth
kml downloads: These downloads use
Google Earth's .kml file format. Google Earth is a
free download available
here. Download the Google Earth
file and save it to a folder on your computer. View the
file name in the folder and then double click it. It should
then automatically open Google Earth and zoom into
the walk.
