Wainwright’s Coast to Coast – Google earth track

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Just in passing, I added this file so you can see the track(s) on Google earth. I enjoy “flying” the sections :)

I gotta get a life :D

Wainwright’s Coast to Coast – GPS Tracks

Thursday, April 19th, 2007

As promised, here are the GPS tracks that I have CREATED of the “Wainwright’s” Coast to coast track in the UK.

Please note that these are from calibrated maps, NOT from an actual logged walk (yet….). Therefore, they are inherently inaccurate – how inaccurate? I’ll let you know when I get back from doing the walk in May 2007. Hopefully I will have the actual logged tracks to offer at that time!

The files are compressed into a ZIP file. There are multiple GPX files within, separating the tracks into manageable lengths. There is also the combined tracks in a single GPX file included. It makes negligible difference to the total file size IMHO :)

Please read the included TXT file. It includes important information about the tracks.

The File:

Enjoy! Please let me know if you think they are grossly inaccurate or can be easily improved. Also, I would appreciate knowing if there are any difficulties using them.

Edit:- I have amended the file to include the Swaledale river-side alternative on the Keld to Reethe section. Also corrected some of the notes – Thanks to  Happy Rambler
