Legend - What do the symbols mean?
We have given a lot of thought to these classifications, but remember they are our own personal opinions.
The Sweepers/Twisty/Hairpin groupings are particularly difficult due to the varied nature of mountain roads.
We have tried to
mark those roads that particularly stand out because of one particular sort. Or if you were using it to select routes, then if you were after sweepers, for example,
those marked would be the ones we feel you'd particularly enjoy.
If you think we've made a balls-up, or have any suggestions,
please let us know via the
forum.
