I'm thinking of planning a trip to northern France next year for a few days off roading but my Memory Maps doesn't have france on my PC. If anyone has the memory maps or IGN maps I could use that would be great. Also I have most of the UK on OS 1:25k that I would be happy to swap if someone wants?

Is that to download the maps from or an App? Already got memory maps so would prefer to have a map to load onto the PC.

its an app = much better than MM. I use Navigator+ & Viewranger for all my mapping requirements.

I used to use MM, but gave it up when they kept trying to charge me for maps I already had :'(

"Here Drive" the new name for the old Nokia maps app. Free downloadable and routable mapping for most of the world for Andriod, IOS and Windows Phone. Obviously only covers sealed roads unless unsealed ones are part of the main network but is a great free offline navigation app.
If you have a Garmin GPS that will accept map and route uploads from a computer then free routable mapping, including off road/unsealed routes, can be found here http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/

Thanks for the replies... I was looking for just the IGN maps ideally as I don't really want to move off Memory Maps. Most of my lanes are plotted in there and switching is a nightmare (maybe not for someone a lot more technical than me..).

After a lot of Google searching I have come across a site called Wikiloc which seems to be a version of Trailwise (but not as sophisticated) which has routes people have driven and you can download maps for £2.50 a year! saves them offline to your device so I will see if I can get the first one I have downloaded off my phone onto my PC with MM... Failing that - load Wikiloc onto my PC and save them down... Thanks for the suggestions!

I have a load of French IGN maps for Memory Map. They're old now, but might be useful .. about 33Gb of mapping so might be awkward to pass on. Whereabouts are you goin, might narrow down a selection of them!!
