Digital Vic Topo maps

Postby spike » Mon 03 Jul, 2023 10:18 pm

Whats your digital map solution for off track hiking in Vic?

I geolocated PDFs myself and used them in Alpine Quest in the NT as all gov topo PDFs were free. But do you need to buy each individual topo in Vic paper and digital? Are there any good apps for Android that contain the Vic topo data down to 25k or even 50k? Or does anyone have pdfs they might be happy to share?

Ive got the maps on paper fyi, as I never rely on digital alone.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

Also have a look at andrewp's OSM Garmin maps together with the orux maps.

Same 25k map, but 250mb per state and has all of australia and nz for free!
