GPX

 

We provide GPX files of the routes for those of you who like your gadgets. The Challenge means different things to different people, for some it's the navigating, for some it's the distance, and for some it's just the pleasure of a day out with friends. Please note, these files have been created using mapping tools and not fully tested in the field.
