A video showing how to download the Heysen Trail GPS files (.gpx), and load onto older handheld GPS units, such as the Garmin eTrex or GPSmap 60CX units. This needs to be done via a program such as Garmin's Basecamp (free). Modern handheld GPS units, like the Garmin Oregon or Dakota series, accept the .gpx file natively without the need for the transfer to be done via the Basecamp program - refer to [ Ссылка ]
Please note this video does not apply to the the newest eTrex series, the eTrex 10, 20 and 30 units, refer to the easier method used in the Garmin Oregon video: [ Ссылка ]
