In this video I show you how to use waypoints, tracks and routes on your Garmin handheld GPS and (watch) wearable devices. I discuss planning and creating waypoints, routes, and tracks on your computer using Garmin Basecamp, and then using those things in the field on your GPS device. Ultimately, I'll give you some practical tips on when to use each entity during your outdoor adventure.

When using a Garmin GPS, understanding the functions of routes, tracks and waypoints can greatly improve your navigation experience. Routes are pre-planned paths that take you from point A to point B, allowing you to optimize your travel time and avoid potential obstacles. With a Garmin GPS you can easily create and save routes based on your preferred mode of transportation, such as walking or driving.

Tracks, on the other hand, are recordings of your actual path of travel. This feature can be particularly useful for outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking or even sailing, as it allows you to track your steps or share your route with others. You can also use the track feature to record the distance and elevation gain of your activity, which can be valuable information for training or future use.

Waypoints are specific locations that you can mark on your GPS so you can easily navigate back to them in the future. For example, you can mark the location of a great fishing spot, a scenic view, or a hiking trail. Waypoints can also be used to create custom routes by linking multiple locations together.

Using these features on your Garmin GPS can greatly improve your navigation experience and help you get the most out of your outdoor adventures. By optimizing your travel path with routes, recording your path with tracks, and marking key locations with waypoints, you can stay on track and explore with confidence.
