OSM map of France for Garmin 800

paulwood

Rather stupidly I thought I had bought Garmin City Navigator European Maps but only bought the UK and Ireland.

I know, read the advert more carefully next time.

Anyway I am not keen on spending £50 again but would like some maps for a few days in France. Anyone got suggestions for free French mapping? I had a look at Velomaps but got confused so a link to an idiots guide fr installing them would not go amiss either.......

Thanks

Paul

after making your selection you will be emailed a link.
This link will be for the files you need both for the garmin 800 and mapsource/basecamp if you use them.
The file for the garmin is a single .img file contained within a zip file.
The mapsource.exe file is the map installer for a pc.
