The new version of our GPS Maps has landed. Traveller’s Africa version 20.05 has new roads to help you stay on track wherever you go.
For self-drive overlanders, the Tracks4Africa GPS Maps on micro SD card is a game-changer. Simply plug the preloaded card into your map-capable Garmin unit and you’re ready to navigate Africa. What’s more, version 20.05 has been updated with the latest data from the field, with more places to eat, drink, refill your tank or spend the night. Road coverage for the continent has increased by 2%, thanks to the 342 data submissions received from other overlanders.
Since we’re working on a guide book on Zambia, there’s more detail on this must-visit country. The latest map release reflects a 6% increase on Zambian points of interest and 1% on roads. Some highlights include:
- Lusaka street name updates
- Lusaka malls updated – get your essentials more easily
- Bypass roads added – improved routing around the capital
- Fuels stops added
- Toll roads updated
Other major updates are on the Kenyan road network (17% increase) and 400 South African mountain passes that have been newly attributed.
