Are the maps routable?

Are the maps routable?

Yes, routable versions are available as standard.

Please bear in mind that the road routing functionality is not as good as commercial sat-nav maps (the TT STD FREE map only). 

The FREE maps are no longer being offered, as of the 14th of April, 2023. Full details of why I have made this decision can be found on the FREE Maps Home Page (link below).

If you wish to use the map for road routing , then please use the Standard (TTSTD FREE or Custom) maps only as this will work best, do NOT use the TT HD Topo mapset for road routing as the routing is completely different, as they are specifically designed for off-road routing (down footpaths, bridleways, etc.).

The TT HD Topo and TT HD Topo Pro maps are designed for hiking and are designed for routing off-road. You can search for any Point of Interest {Town, City, Village, Hamlet, Road Name, Lake, Stream, River, Peak, Pub, etc. ) and it will show a list of the ones starting from the nearest to you.
