Lofoten Travel Forum

Hello travelers,


I am planning to visit the Lofoten Islands by walking or biking. Is there anybody who could tell me which Mapsource is necessary for a GARMIN 60CS ? And how can I buy it from Belgium ?

Thanks in advance,
Ulysse

We have this at home, but I do not know much (I leave that to my boyfriend).
I think there's only one mapsource roadmap for Norway. If you are after topographic maps - then Statens Kartverk (The Norwegian Mapping Authority) have a lot of maps. There is one for all of Norway 1:250000 and regional 1:50000. The reginal maps in Lofoten Region would be: Bodø region (covering Lofoten south of Svolvær and Bodø area) and Harstad region (covering Narvik, Harstad, Sortland and Vesterålen). But they are quite expensive, so the best would probably be to get a general map and use a paper one, for more detail. Anyway - in Lofoten you basically have to follow the E10, so the need for a detailed map isn't really that important.

We have the topographic map from Statens Kartverk for Oslo region.

We also have the 60CS

Thanks very much!
