Uncle Paul´s Walking Routes Page

By Paul Cummings

This is my page of walking route that I have prepared for downloading to a GPS system (specifically my Garmin E-Trex Summit via GPSU)

For each walk there is an Excel file and a text file.

If you have Excel, just take the Excel file. The Excel files have three main tabs: Graph - showing a slope profile of the walk, Data - containing all of the actual walk distance, time and height data and GPS - containing the information to dump out to the text file for loading into a GPS.

To produce the text file from the Excel one, open it, click on the GPS tab then save it as Formatted Text (Space Delimited) *.PRN. Accept the warnings etc then close the .PRN file. Rename it to be .TXT and open in GPSU.

The text file I provide can be opened straight into GPSU.
