 Scotland, England and Wales are covered in great detail by the Ordnance Survey's Landranger Maps which are 1:50000 in scale. In addition the entire island is also covered by an even more detailed 1:25000 series of maps. The old series of Pathfinder Maps which were quite small and relatively expensive have been replaced by the Explorer Series which cover a larger area and offer better value for money. In addition, certain areas (mainly National Parks and similar mountainous areas) which were covered by the Outdoor Leisure Series (1:25000) are now included in the Explorer range. Also of some use are the Touring maps which are in various scales. However these seem to be in the process of being "dumbed down" with the old maps which showed mountains, rivers etc, and were beautifully shaded, being phased out in favour of the new versions which are essentially road maps. The maps listed represent only a selection of those available. If you are after a map for an area that is not listed please email us at info@needlesports.com with as much information as you can and we will endeavour to assist you. The Ordnance Survey has an excellent website to assist you in finding the correct map for your needs. The most useful pages are:- a clickable map of 1:50000 Landranger Maps, a clickable list of 1:50000 Landranger Maps which gives a visual outline of the coverage of each map, a clickable outline map of 1:25000 Explorer Maps, a clickable list of Explorer Maps which gives a visual outline of the coverage of each map, a clickable map of theTouring Maps, and a clickable list of Touring Maps which gives a visual outline of the coverage of each map. | 
Harvey Maps are a specialist map company that concentrate on maps specifically designed for mountaineers, climbers and walkers. The detail on these maps is considered by many to be superior to that on some of the equivalent OS maps (their Cuillin Map, for instance, is excellent) and they have the added advantage of being printed on waterproof paper. However coverage is restricted to the most popular areas of the UK. Most of the maps are in the 1:25000 Superwalker Series but some are also available in the 1:40000 Walker series.
