OSM TOPO
Everything is displayed very accurately and clearly. Paths leading to the lake are drawn and even a resting place near the lake is indicated. Everything is true - you can come and check.
We completely switched to using maps from the OpenStreetMap project after one of our trips to the Crimea, where we took a navigator with a Navik DR TOPO map with us: here is just one comparison as an example - however, such errors and inaccuracies are present on almost the entire map for which they ask for money.
DR TOPO
This can be called a detailed map only with a very big stretch.
OSM TOPO
Everything that is shown on the map is almost completely true.

The topographic map is updated almost daily. Various compilations of it are freely available. The tourist version is the most detailed and detailed - we recommend it for use in portable travel navigators.

And most importantly! You can correct any inaccuracy you see on the map yourself directly from your browser on the OpenStreetMap website. You will need some free time and your navigator with saved points and tracks to make the desired area on the map as detailed as possible.

On a note
Can good map be free? As you can see, it's okay! All our employees, avid motorists and fans of Garmin navigators, for a long time and stubbornly did not want to take into account the fact that smartphones have almost completely replaced car navigators as a class. Why did this happen? The answer is very simple - public interactive maps.
A few years ago, I was offered to ride with a simple android smartphone and an application installed in it. Yandex.Navigator. This application, as well as a similar program Yandex maps are completely free and available to everyone. However, now no one needs to prove that they are MUCH better and more practical than any "sitinavigators" and "navigators".
Recently, a huge number of cards have appeared on the worldwide web, which, unfortunately, some sites want to sell. In our store there are only unique information products. Only here you can download a map of the Sverdlovsk region for free literally in one click. We cannot hide from users what has long been in the public domain. For example, here you can find topo Garmin maps is free. A navigator is a rather expensive purchase, so it may be that there is not enough money for maps. In any case, when you buy such a device, you win, but for the time being, you can use the free cards that are presented in this section.
What are Garmin Introductory Maps
This is branded software prepared by us. Professional cards, which come with a fee, have a lot more options.

If you are engaged in serious multi-day trips (including ATV trips), then you will have to buy professional maps in the end.
What else can be found here
Download free GPS maps Garmin and more. Information will be gradually updated here, we will expose maps prepared by us for free use.

Hello. You can use the tourist assemblies laid out. There is both the entire RF and individual regions. Please note that in complete map RF search by address will not work, use assemblies by region (for example, CFD).
anton
Hello, there are hunting maps for the Chelyabinsk region on the Garmin Oregon 300.
Good afternoon!
No, we do not have specialized maps for hunters. Only standard topographic.
Sergei
Hello. Can you please tell me if it is possible to upload a map of the depths of the lakes of the northwest to the Garmin nuvi 205 automobile reg. Will it work? If so, where can I get the link? Thanks for any answer.
Hello!
There is a map "Internal waters of Russia" (Bluechart), but it is intended primarily for chartplotters and echo sounders. It should work on any Garmin, but we haven't tested it. Now we don't deal with such cards anymore.
ANDREW
hello, tell me please, is it necessary to install the map on a USB flash drive or can it be in the navigator itself if there is a place there? thanks!
Hello!
No, not necessarily, you can on the internal memory.
Ivan
Is it possible to download your maps to your phone and then to a Garmin travel navigator
Hello!
If you mean, is it possible to download a map to MicroSD in a smartphone, and then insert it into a navigator, then it is probably possible to do this, but we did not check. The card must be placed in the garmin folder located at the root of the memory card.
Vladimir
Is it possible to download from you (relief of Russia OSM for garmin). from Yandex disk or cloud mail. Everywhere only torrent. and have us torrent in not law. you might lose your computer. or get on the money. Thanks in advance!
Good afternoon! Official OSM maps for Garmin can be downloaded from garmin.gis-lab.info. In addition to the torrent, there are also direct links.
Read more about OSM in hiking and mountain tourism, viewing from a computer when planning a route, editing a map, read here:. (Yes, there are passes there, including those from the Vestra catalog, relief, ford depth, etc.)
Openstreetmaps are very detailed, especially in touristy places. And they can be changed, finished by the users themselves, which makes them universal. In the navigator, it is more convenient and faster to work with them than with raster maps of the General Staff. For cross-country travel, you only need to add contour lines to these maps. For viewing on a computer, this was done at opentopomap.org. Also available at nakarte.me.
The more tourists who know this information, the more detailed the maps will be, so spread this information.
And here is a short video for those who want to start editing OSM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7UdJrX8nGM
Join my hikes through the group in Vkontakte: https://vk.com/shuriktravel. There is a schedule of planned events, but it's easier to join a group, and then you will receive hike invitations (do you have permission for event invitations in the settings?)
UPD: To work with OSM screen mobile phone install the LOCUS application (it also has a package of maps from here, where there are maps of the General Staff, satellite imagery and many others) and there select the Cyclo (OpenCycleMap) or OpenTopoMap map.
Yes, there are such maps, the OSM community has several options for maps collected from public resources.
1) Garmin TOPO Active Russia
Map Garmin Topo Active is completely free, available for download on compatible Garmin navigation devices and watches. The basis of the data is OpenStreetMap (OSM), in addition, there is a layer of fast route calculation on the map (works with compatible navigators of the GPSMAP 66 series, Fenix 5 Plus watch series). The map is divided into two parts, East and West. There is no address search on the map, but there is a search for objects.
To use the navigator you need:
- create a Garmin catalog on a blank microSD card
- copy the files TopoActiveRussia_East_D7554000B.img and TopoActiveRussia_West_D7553000B.img to this directory.
To use the Basecamp app and display these maps on your computer:
- the card must be installed in the card reader,
- start Basecamp and wait for the maps to load and display.
To use Garmin watches, you must:
- write the designated files to the Garmin catalog on the watch.
- in the settings, select the display of the desired section of the map.
If you installed the TopoActive Russia card before, delete the old files, write new files.
Coating: Russia
To use the map in your navigator, you will need to install Mapsource and add the maps to the Windows registry. Then upload the maps to the card using Mapsource.
Benefits: daily updates, ability to connect to Basecamp/Mapsource, select regions for download
Disadvantages: outdated map compiler, difficulty installing the map in the Windows registry, inability to quickly use the map on macOS, no ready-made file for Garmin devices (loss of time to build the map file)

Cons: Virtually none
File list description and installation:
Discussion of the assembly and proposals for work are at the link:
Note: It is recommended to use an already prepared file for the navigator (the file for downloading to Garmin devices). To do this, download the archive file https://maptourist.org/osm-garmin/OSM-MapTourist-gmapsupp-RU.zip and unzip it. Use a blank card in FAT32 format. Create a Garmin catalog on a card. The resulting gmapsupp.img file must be copied to the Garmin directory on a blank card. Insert the card into your navigator and select the OSM card in the settings.
Coverage: Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, the Baltic countries (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia), the territory of the former USSR.
