Openstreetmap gives us the ability to really create mtb focused maps вЂ“ like no other map provider has ever done. But hardly anyone used them, so I started to create maps that showed the tags, and after a few month put up to make the maps available for everyone to download.Д¬urrently around 2000-5000 unique visitors enjoy every day (as measured with Google Analytics). However there was not yet any structure to classify ways so I developed the mtb:scale as well as many other attribute keys for OSM. I started working on OSM because I saw the chance that for the first time in history there could be maps by mtbikers for mtbikers. Besides third party progs like Glopus or Garmin Mobile XT can be used to display the openmtbmaps on your PDA or phone.

Qlandkarte GT an opensource and freely available Map Viewer can display them in all their pride, and also if not owning a Garmin GPS or buying maps from Garmin you can install Garmin Mapsource to your computer and enjoy autorouting like you have not enjoyed before. The maps offered here are of course, currently primarily used by Garmin GPS users and mountain bikers in general, but you don't need to have a Garmin GPS to use them. As it shows less detail, it is quicker to understand. The VeloMap has a focus on cycle friendly roads and cycle ways / cycle routes.

Velomap: If you're mainly cycling on-road or use your race bicycle, then I offer the similar VeloMap.

Good Documentation because everything you want and need to know for using the maps is found on.
