GPS for 4x4 routes

One of the key elements that we should have for a 4x4 route is a good GPS to guide us and show us the passable routes with our vehicle.

Depending on the use that we're going to give it we can mainly choose between a handheld GPS or another more professional GPS.

The handheld GPSs have the advantage of being able to be used for hiking or biking, since those work with battery and most of them are water resistant.

As opposed, their screens are quite small, so to use for driving may be uncomfortable, but are equally useful for occasional use in the vehicle.

In the opposite, the remaining no handheld GPSs offer larger screens, for a more professional use in 4x4 vehicles. In this case it is important that we choose a device which supports maps, and has large storage capacity of routes and way points.

Here you have a couple of recommendations for a handheld GPS and a professional GPS:

If you need a handheld GPS, we recommend you the Garmin Etrex 30, you can buy it on Amazon, and you can install free maps. These are the some of its features:

• worldwide base map;

• Display 2.2 "" 65,000 colours, which can be read with the light of the sun;

• three-axis compass and barometric altimeter;

• Wireless to share way points, routes and geocaches with other similar devices;

• GPS and GLONASS satellites to acquire the position more quickly.

Furthermore, our professional GPS recommendation is the Navigattor Camel 8. Here are some of its features:
