Camping, NP, Embassies, Worldwide - GoogleEarth + GPX

Attention:

Please use for download only the latest version on the last page of this thread.

All other versions are no longer available.

Thanks

Ulrich


Hello,

I have prepared the following file with campgrounds and/or hotels, resthouses in Africa as GoogleEarth file and as GPX-file.

Camping-Welt.zip, Google-Earth-KML + GPX - ZIP, 32 KB ------------------------>



Following countries are avaiable:

Aegypten - Algerien - Angola - Äthiopien - Botswana - Gambia - Iran - Jordanien - Kenia - Libyen - Malawi - Marokko - Mauretanien - Namibia - Niger - Oman - Senegal - Simbabwe - Sudan - Syrien - Tansania - Tchad - Tunesien - Türkei - Zentralafrikanische Republik - Sambia - Vereinigte Arabische Emirate


The countries are separated in directories.

If someone has coordinates for not included countries and campgrounds, would be great if he sents me an PN or email.

Regards

Ulrich

Feel free to grab my waypoints and track logs from beddha.free.fr/GPS and incorporate into your list. Note that some camping sites are just camp spots, nothing else there.

Ok, the most is done! It's just in front of being "final".

Many new countries and points are included (the new countries in "blue").

Albanien - Aegypten - Algerien - Angola - Äthiopien - Belgien - Botswana - Bulgarien - Burkina Faso - China - Dänemark - Deutschland - Estland - Finnland - Frankreich - Gabun - Gambia - Griechenland - Holland - Indien - Iran - Italien - Jordanien - Kenia - Kongo - Laos - Lettland - Libyen - Litauen - Luxembourg - Malawi - Marokko - Mauretanien - Montenegro - Mosambik - Namibia - Nepal - Niger - Norwegen - Oman - Österreich - Pakistan - Polen - Rumänien - Russland - Sambia - Saudi-Arabien - Schweden - Schweiz - Senegal - Serbien - Simbabwe - Slovenien - Slowakei - Spanien - Sudan - Syrien - Tansania - Tchad - Thailand - Tibet - Togo - Tschechien - Tunesien - Türkei - Uganda - Ukraine - Ungarn - Vereinigte Arabische Emirate - Weissrussland - Yemen - Zentralafrikanische Republik

Camping-Welt.zip, Google-Earth-KML + GPX - ZIP, 702 KB ------------------------>

Attention: The unzipped files (GoogleEarth-KML, 4657 KB and GPX, 2768 KB) are a huge and it needs some time, especially in GoogleEarth, to load them.

And: If someone has coordinates for not included countries and campgrounds, would be great if he sents me an PN or email.

Thanks to all who have helped.

Sorry for the German country-names. Could be I translate it sometimes into English.

Happy camping

Ulrich

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
