yes I have downloaded it - but just for the UK.

all seems fine and dandy, despite time it took to remind myself about unzipping files on a chromebook.

Thoroughly recommended.

Annual updates fine for the UK I think (hell one should be riding, not computer tinkering) though for lesser mapped places I would probable be looking for monthly updates.

So basically I think openfietsmap great - I use it on the garmin etrex 20 in combination with cycle-travel, gpsies (for tinkering with routes generated by cycletravel) and osmandplus on the android tab (for the bigger picture). OSMandplus allows you to select an openfietsmap "style" for its maps.

Also updated Majorca as the last time I did that was in 2016. A larger data download now but no idea why ?
(Hope to test it soon :) )

I have 3 maps on my 810.
1 = INTL standard basemap. NR
2 = GB.
3 = Majorca.

I disabled the basemap with the others enabled.


Best thing to do is always enable the Basemap, when you zoom out, the Openfietsmaps will disappear and the Basemap will be used.
The larger download is because it contains now DEM (altitude/shaded relief) data. BTW the last update of Mallorca is of May 6, http://www.openfietsmap.nl/downloads/baleares

New update available of the OpenFietsMap Europe.

For what it's worth in these times of travel restrictions.
But use it to dream of cycling through Europe.

Many thanks for this peter.
How did you know this so soon - just coincidence?
I just use it on the garmin so can download the separate areas.

It was published on a Dutch cycling forum. And I saw it wasn't published here.

Have fun and keep cycling as long it is possible. It's good for you.

Do you know whether the Europe map will be updated in 2021, too? If so, will it be in the same month, namely March?

Thanks a lot,

Good to hear wizard, and can't by the way help wondering whether less or more than normal will have been added to the database during this odd year.
Will you be posting on here when europe and/or the UK is done?

Hi all,

I'm just trying to confirm that Openfietsmap will work with the Garmin Edge Explore? Looks like a good product if I can add the routable maps to it.

I don't think I could fit all of the European sectors, but certainly the ones of interest.

Not me - thanks from me to Wizard - installed latest GB on my Etrex20 after some bungling at my end.
