Harvey Maps have produced a single map depicting the entire route plus the links into Bradford, Leeds and Harrogate. At a scale of 1:40 000, this map is waterproof and GPS compatible.

Ordnance Survey cover the route with three Landranger maps: numbers 97 (Kendal and Morecambe), 98 (Wensleydale and Upper Wharfedale) and 104 (Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate). These are to a scale of 1:50 000.

The new Ordnance Survey Explorer series of maps replaces the Outdoor Leisure and the Pathfinder maps, all to a scale of 1:25 000. To complete the Dales Way with Explorer maps you will need numbers 297 (Lower Wharfedale and Washburn Valley), OL2 (Yorkshire Dales: Southern and Western areas), OL30 (Yorkshire Dales: Northern and Central areas), OL19 (Howgill Fells and Upper Eden Valley) and OL7 (The English Lakes (South-Eastern area)).
