    Hi everyone!

    Just wondering if there any maps available out there that give coverage of this country at 1:25,000 scale?

    I'm planning a fair bit of walking around Carlingford/Slieve Donard and various bits of the Wicklow Way and St Kevins Way this year. I have the OSI 1:50,000 maps but what other options are there??

    Thanks for any hints!

    There is a 1:25000 map of the Mournes (Slieve Donard).

    Most of the Wicklow way is cover by the Harvey's map (1:30000)

    I'd recommend both maps.

    Thanks mountaingoat!

    Do you know who does the Mournes Map?

    I'm looking it up on the internet now so hopefully I'll find it!!

    Cheers!

    What about maps for the Ulster Way? Have been looking everywhere for a detailed one.

    I think the mournes map is by the OSI of northern ireland - I picked up a copy in Easons last year. Most outdoor stores should stock it.

    The harveys map is grand but only covers the central section of wicklow.

    Just got all my maps at the National Map Centre on Aungier Street. They seem to have all OSI and OSNI maps including Harveys and the Trail Master DVD's too.

    Just to let ye know!!!
