For outdoor activities such as walking and hiking, the maps that are the most useful in the UK, (and most widely available) are the Ordnance Survey 1:25000 series. These 2.5inches to 1mile scale are the best when it comes to looking for rights of way, or checking the contours of a mountain for route finding. Despite having a small collection of such maps, there will always be occasions when you only need a small section, or you just don't have the required map in your possession. This short guide shows how to print scale OS 1:25000 maps for free.
Just like to say thanks for this post – you’ve saved an entire scout camp from having naff maps – my computer with Memory Maps on failed the night before a camp – so going back to basics!!
Cheers,
Ed
