Using Google Maps for planning and sharing your route

Google My.Maps is free and you can do all your planning in one place, online

I plan my routes on Google my.maps, it saves me a great deal of time and allows me to access my customised maps from my mobile phone anywhere I want.

Use layers and make pins in different colours for each day.
After I spend hours planning my journey from start to finish, I save my map created on Google Maps in my Dropbox
and from there it’s uploaded to Locus maps.
Taking a printed copy with you is always a good idea just to be safe.
