GPS setting for walks in Italy

Q. Could you tell me the GPS setting for walking and hiking in Italy

Mel Storey, Warrington

A. For walking and hiking in Italy you should set your GPS to Position Format = 'UTM/UPS' and Map Datum = 'European1950'

For some walks in Italy complete with downloadable GPS Waypoints see Walks in Italy.

Hope this helps . . .
