This review is from: Ben Nevis, Fort William and Glen Coe (Landranger Maps) (Paperback)
I dislike the 1:50,000 landranger maps as the scale is too small. Detail is difficult to see in the best conditions (sitting at home), so imagine using it while walking, or walking in the rain, or walking in the rain and fog. Can you still see it? Even for those people who don't want to actually 'use' the map, the 1:25,000 explorer series maps are much better for understanding the area.

However, for fear of being too harsh, these maps would be good for a few uses. For cycling around the area, these would be perfect (1:25000 would be too difficult to follow on a bike as you'd be moving too quickly). For keeping as a memento of a good day out, great again. And OS maps are always going to be good, regardless of scale.

But for walking, unless your walk is very simple (sticking to obvious large paths) then it would be quite difficult to navigate with a map of this scale, especially around Ben Nevis where lethal cliff edges surround more than half of the 260 degrees around you and white outs in fog/clouds can come out of nowhere. And it's often important to be able to pick out features of the land that help you find where you are on a map, and these features are much easier to see on a 1:2500.

In my opinion, in the case of mountains with big cliffs like this, a 1:25000 really could save your life.
