International Topo Maps
In addition to web maps that come as standard with ViewRanger globally, we also offer an upgrade option to high quality topographic mapping sourced under contract from Geosciences Agencies in a growing number of countries, we call these "premium" maps. To get these maps downloaded and permanently stored on your phone you need to buy a user licence. Click on the country flag to find out more:

Premium mapping shows you more detail than web maps, especially in rural & remote places. So you can see the contoured topography, rights of way and key points on the landscape. The other big benefit of premium maps is that you can buy the areas you need in advance and they are permanently stored for anytime use in your phone’s memory and will work without mobile coverage.
To make it easy to get precisely the mapping you need, we offer three ways to buy premium maps:
Three ways to buy maps
1. By Individual Map tile
If you just want to buy a small map area to meet your needs for a particular trip – then this is the way to go and you can do it directly to your handset using a mobile internet connection– the file sizes can be quite big so having a Wi-Fi connection will make it faster.
We use a grid or “tile” system for each country. So you can highlight the tiles you need individually or by area. Then download map tiles directly into the ViewRanger app, wherever you are and whenever you need them.
To load your account with pre-paid credit tokens – buy ViewRanger credit via our web shop or In-App (Apple).
2. Pre-packaged Regional or whole country mapping
Alternatively, you may simply want to buy the whole of your country or region and have it always ready to use. See the range of regions available for each country via the ViewRanger shop either in-App or via the web store. These can be delivered by immediate download, or buy post (at additional cost) stored on external media (CD, DVD or memory card).
3. Self-select custom mapping
The third option provides a balance between by-the-tile and pre-packaged – and allows you to custom select the areas you need and just buy that – perfect if you live on the boundary between two regions.
