On this apge I decided to put some of the waypoints and other materials for use with GPS units. There are two main things that I use may Garmin GPS12 for:
The following are the routes I mapped during my many trips from Delft to Lodz. I mapped most of the gas stations, especially in Germany, where they have a strange habit of disapearing exactly when you most need them.
I drive usially through Swiecko border crossing, but it's acatually very often a gamble in which there are hours of standing in a cue at stake, so I have also slternate routes from other border crossings.
You can download three files in a format accepted by GPStrans (and maybe some other software as well). Those contain the routes that are described below, the gas stations along them and some additional waypoints in vicinity of the routes.
This large collection of waypoints was first gathered when I was preparing for trekking in Everest region. It contains the villages, bridges that were important during my trip, interesting peaks and high mountain passes. Most of the waypoints that I prepared for the trip were corrected during trekking, some (like all mountain peaks) however couldn't be verified by me on the spot and remain only my best guess based on a map. They can all be downloaded in a single text file or browsed below. There is also a separate page with the trackback of my trekking route.
