All Trail Route Chooser routes have been devised by TRAIL magazine and are reproduced here by agreement with Emap Active Ltd. The route files provide an indication of the route in question but should not be read as a definitive description. Anquet Technology Ltd. accepts no responsibility for any consequence of the use of these files under any circumstances.

 Route Chooser

Each month TRAIL magazine has a Route Chooser feature for a popular mountain in Great Britain. This section features a selection of routes on the mountain with accompanying information and illustrations. Working in association with TRAIL magazine, Anquet Maps now supply the TRAIL routes for you to download and view on Ordnance Survey or Harvey walking maps.

You will need a copy of Anquet Maps to download and view the route directly on the mapping. Together with the information from TRAIL magazine, the Anquet route files provide invaluable information when planning your trip to the mountain.
