Hi,
Since I have found this really useful. Thank You.  I have decided I would feed back into it.
I have just been away for three weeks. Travelling thru France, Spain and Portugal.
Along the way I checked my waypoints against yours and updated / added accordingly. I found some new campsites and some with sightly wrong way points. Nothing major.
Attached is the file I saved them in. Just rename it to dot gpx.
I hope that this helps, and again, thanks for your hard work.
Dan

So,
die meisten im Netz findbaren Campingplätze wie auch die vorhandenen Updates usw. sind vorhanden.
Jetzt war Zeit und Muse die Daten zu pflegen, sprich doppelte Wegpunkte zu entfernen, falsch liegende Wegpunkte zu korrigieren, bei gleichlautenden Namen eine Nummerierung einzufügen, die nur mit dem "Schnorchel" erreichbaren Campingplätze wieder an Land zu ziehen usw.

Trotzdem noch vorhandene Fehler dürft Ihr behalten oder korrigiert an mich zurückschicken.

P.S.: Sorry, was too lazy to translate. Maybe someone would do it for me.

New: National Parks in Afrika!
- 52 countries
- 335 NPs
Many of the travellers visit the NPs in Africa. I have sampled the places and prepared a new file - National Parks.zip. But take care, mostly it's only a waypoint in the middle of the area.
For more information the following links:
Wikipedia Englisch - List of national parks in Africa
Africa Game Reserves
UNESCO - World Heritage Africa
More informations by Google.
The Campgrounds are also reorganised, again corrected and updated!
The files for the NPs and Campgrounds are stored together in Camping-Welt.zip.
Also new is the Garmin-Mapsource format GDB (sorry, not separated in single countries).
Desert-Info.ch - Camping-Welt.zip, Google-Earth-KML + GPX + Garmin Mapsource GDB- ZIP, 6716 KB----->
Unzip all and You will get two directories with the data inside.
Best regards
Ulrich
PS.: Sorry for my rural Frankonian English

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.
