Walking across Maughold Brooghs (Walk 10)

The British Ordnance Survey produces a single Landranger map (Sheet 95) at a scale of 1:50,000, and for most walks this will be suitable. The Isle of Man government, however, has produced two excellent maps at a scale of 1:25,000 – Outdoor Leisure Map North and South, both as conventional paper mapping and in waterproof format. They are available from several shops on the island or from www.lilypublications.co.uk.
