Customer Reviews

The Active series from Satmap is the only device that this company produces so there is a lot of attention to detail, listening to what customers have to say and ensuring that client and technical support is second to none.  Satmap sold their first product, the Active 10, back in 2007 so must be doing something right.  Over the years their products have won numerous awards and the company has grown a loyal following of serious enthusiasts of the great outdoors whether it be walking, hiking, cycling or off-roading.

One of the key selling points for us is that it is the only handheld GPS system that includes Ordnance Survey Ireland 1:50K maps.  There is also an excellent selection of other maps for Ireland including EastWest Mapping and Harvey titles.
