In your Offas Dyke Path preparations remember that your navigation skill will be tested.

No matter what form of mapping they have used, all guidebook writers recommend the long distance walker to carry large-scale maps. We offer both Ordnance Survey Landranger and Explorer maps to help keep you on course.

 Ordnance Survey Landranger Series
Scale 1:50,000; 2cm to 1km; 1� inches to 1 mile

If one of your enjoyments of savouring the countryside throughout your walk is to examine the broader picture and to line up the hill tops in the surrounding area, then these maps are for you

 
These maps are available in three editions:

Paper - they fold well, and are backed with a reasonably durable laminated cover. They will remain intact, depending on how much wind and rain you have encountered!

Wilderness - laminated, tear resistant and waterproof they are designed for use in wind and rain and should arrive home with you as a permanent souvenir.

Lam-Fold - extra strong lamination with a 'china-graph' write-on, wipe-off surface they are also tear resistant and waterproof. They are however, a little bulkier than the 'wilderness' version.

 Ordnance Survey Explorer Maps
Scale 1:25,000; 4cm to 1km; 2� inches to 1 mile

This scale provides detail for the really committed navigator and map enthusiast. Studying the county down to its every wall and ditch gives real confidence in route finding and satisfaction in "reading" the landscape. To follow the route at 1:25,000 you will need Explorer maps OL14, OL13, 201, 216, 240, 256 and 265. These maps are available in three editions:

Paper - they fold well, and are backed with a reasonably durable laminated cover. They will remain intact, depending on how much wind and rain you have encountered!

Wilderness - laminated, tear resistant and waterproof they are designed for use in wind and rain and should arrive home with you as a permanent souvenir.

Lam-Fold - extra strong lamination with a 'china-graph' write-on, wipe-off surface they are also tear resistant and waterproof. They are however, a little bulkier than the 'wilderness' version.

 
 Offas-Dyke Suggestions  
The Wilderness Edition maps are a good compromise between the paper maps that are likely to self-destruct in the wind, rain, sleet & snow and the heavier duty Lam-Fold Editions.

 Offas-Dyke Suggestions  
Your choice of maps is dependant upon your choice of scale and pocket! If you can justify the small extra cost, our recommendation is to go for the seven Explorer maps - and better still, if you can afford it, the Wilderness Editions.
