Rutland Water is the UK's largest man-made lake set in 4,200 acres of parkland including a wide, hard surfaced, walkway making the 'Water' an ideal introduction to long distance walking. There are four official, family friendly, recreation centres and nature reserves including the Rutland Osprey Project. Add in picturesque villages and the town of Oakham and you will soon understand why Rutland Water has become one of England's favourite 'Daycation' destinations. Rutland Water Challenge Map and Guide is a 25k scale OSlike map with the Challenge route specially highlighted. We licence OS 50k scale mapping which is then doubled in size to produce an OSlike 25k map but the features, text and logos are now doubled in size making them much easier to read under Challenge conditions. Rutland Water Challenge Route is added and specially highlighted so that our route stands out against the OSlike 25k map. Then we add the additional detail you might need including local hostelries along with the three walking routes; Hambleton Peninsula 8.3kms, Circular 24.5kms and the full Challenge route at 36kms. For each of the three routes we have gps track and waypoints as a gpx file; the zip file of the gpx files is available as a free download. These gps track and waypoints gpx files can be used on all gps phone apps and gps units. The 33 waypoints of the full Challenge route are highlighted on the map, and our Rutland Water Challenge Map is available as a free digital Custom Map download for Garmin gps users. On the reverse of the map sheet is our Locator Map using OS Opendata showing the location of, and access to, Rutland Water relative to a wide area of England. The result is a double sided 600mm by 600mm map design. We then print the map design on a 100 micron plastic substrate using a special UV curing inks process on the UK's only press capable of using this latest technology. The result is a lightweight map that is both waterproof and tearproof, and fully recyclable, that will survive anything your Rutland Water Challenge can throw at it and afterwards will fold up like new.
