Ordnance Survey web site – no longer selling GPS units and watches

The landscape of outdoor GPS navigation is changing with Ordnance Survey no longer selling GPS units and watches.

In the past,
TwoNav partnered with Ordnanance Survey to produce a GPS unit, and many outdoor enthusiasts are wondering where to turn for the best GPS devices.

If you’re looking for an alternative with expert knowledge, post-sale training, and a strong focus on outdoor GPS solutions, GPS Training is the answer. Here’s why.

Ordnance Survey’s shift away from GPS sales

For years, Ordnance Survey (OS) was a trusted source for GPS devices, bundling them with their high-quality mapping.

However, they’ve recently decided to focus on their digital app-based mapping solutions rather than selling physical GPS devices.

Their expertise lies in mapping, not in GPS hardware sales or post-purchase support, which I think has made them struggle in this specialised marketplace.

TwoNav and Ordnance Survey – A new alternative

In the past, TwoNav stepped in to collaborate with OS, providing GPS devices that come with Ordnance Survey mapping, such as the Trail 2.

At GPS Training, we stock TwoNav GPS units, making it easy for former OS customers to find a suitable alternative.

Our expert team has tested these devices and can help you choose the right model for your needs.

Why GPS Training is the best choice

1. We Stock TwoNav and Other Leading GPS Brands

We don’t just sell TwoNav GPS units—we also stock Garmin, ensuring you have a choice when selecting the right device for your outdoor adventures.

Whether you need a robust handheld unit for hiking or an advanced GPS device for multi-day expeditions, we have you covered.

2. Post-Sale Training – A Unique GPS Training Advantage

Unlike Ordnance Survey or standard online retailers, GPS Training provides free post-sale training with every GPS unit purchase.

This ensures that you get the most out of your device, whether it’s a TwoNav and Garmin, GPS unit. Our expert-led training sessions help you navigate the features, set up maps, and use your GPS confidently in the great outdoors.

3. Expert Advice & Customer Support

While Ordnance Survey has moved away from selling GPS units, and TwoNav’s direct support may not be as established in the UK, GPS Training offers expert guidance before and after your purchase.

We help customers find the right unit, ensuring they get a device suited to their specific needs—whether that’s long-distance hiking, ultra-running, or mountain navigation.

4. Bundled OS Mapping and Flexible Options

We stock TwoNav GPS units preloaded with Ordnance Survey maps, providing a seamless transition for customers who previously relied on OS for GPS solutions.

If you have formerly had Ordnance Survey branded GPS units i.e. TwoNav, and you like the idea of a different large screen GPS unit, we offer Garmin Montana 710, Garmin Montana 710i, and the Garmin Montana 760i. 

The large screen units are perfect for those looking for a Garmin alternative with Ordnance Survey mapping compatibility.

Conclusion: The future of GPS buying lies with GPS Training

With Ordnance Survey exiting GPS sales and the new TwoNav models emerging as an alternative, GPS Training is now the best place for UK outdoor enthusiasts to find the right GPS device, with post-sale support, training, and expert guidance.
