Thread: Google maps route to Zumo 660

You could possibly split the route into sections "road sections" and "off road sections".

Then You would end up with a number of routes that you would have to select as you go along.

Waypoints can be used to force the nuvi to calculate the route the way you want it.

However if there is no road then it's a problem.

I have made waypoints and tried forcing it to go to the waypoints but because Im going to be off road at some of the sections the Zumo isnt accepting the route.

That's why you have to split the route !
I use the same technique When I'm swapping between Mapsets on different African Countries.
Set a route to the border using one mapset with waypoints to shape the route.
When I get to the border switch the mapset and choose another route to the Next Destination point. etc etc
Its a pain but can be done.
You must have road to use shaping Waypoints points.
