360 Nürburg Book

We bought the 360 Nürburg Book. Very high quality and interesting Book with a lot of nice pictures plus Information about the areas around the routes. All the routes come as a gpx file. Wich you can use on a Navigation app, i do recommend using a different app, because the calimoto app doesn’t work properly.

Hi Simon, thank you very much for your review! I am very happy to hear that you like my 360 Nürburg book!

It sounds like Calimoto has recently updated its app and made some changes that people are not totally happy with. I am in contact with them and will keep my eye on the situation. I will update my app recommendations if the issues are not fixed soon.

Great to hear that you found your way to the GPX-files. They can be used in any app that supports GPX files with many waypoints.

Can you send me an email with the name of the navigation app that you would recommend? I would be very happy to consider this app.
My email is frank@360roadbooks.com

All the best!
Frank

What a great product

What a great product. This is exactly what you want in a road book. Some highlights:
- Interesting background information without being too long.
- Clear routes, directly added to your planner via QR code. Easy to read legend
- Beautiful photography
But it for yourself or the motoring enthusiast in your life. You/they won't regret it!

Veery helpful book for touring the area near the Ring

Very useful book for a regular visitor to the Nürburgring as it is in a rural area dotted with small villages. I have many books about driving the Nordschleife and have been there often, but this is the first book to cover the broader geography. The track is not open all the time for the public so there is plenty of time for other activities. Well done!

Perfect roadbook

I bought the 360 Nürburg roadbook a couple years ago, the book is very nice. Has great pictures and detailed stories of POI’s. The routes in the book are amazing to drive in the Eifel and for everybody who loves to drive and wants to visit the Eifel, the book is highly recommended

Great routes, beautiful book

Besides containing routes (gpx, maps) for the best roads for the drivers, the books just look very good - it's nice to just browse the books and enjoy the photos, but it's also informative when you want to know more about the area and the points of interest.

The service has been great (1 small order and 1 big order), the company met the agreements made punctually.

Close to 5 stars but...

EDIT: Publisher has responded with great answers. :)

Close to 5 stars but...
The GPS QR codes is only showing waypoints it's not an actual route that you can use with Google/apple maps. This is quite annoying.
Also several waypoints mistakes, place names and typos where found.

Besides the above it's a very good book and a great guide to fun roads on 2 or 4 wheels. The summarization of hotels and restaurants for each route, is great and gives you a good overview.

Thank you so much for your review Michael and for the kind words!
Regarding the QR codes that link to GPX navigation files: Due to the complexity of the routes with a large number of waypoints, the GPX-files are unfortunately not compatible with Google Maps / Apple Maps (this is also mentioned in the books). Google and Apple Maps can only handle a very limited number of waypoints. Therefore they modify the routes to suit their restrictions, which causes the mistakes you mentioned. This is unfortunately out of our control.

We recommend the Calimoto app, MyrouteApp or Garmin and TomTom devices for accurate navigation of the routes in the book. There are also other good navigation app out there that can handle the complexity of the routes.
Alternatively, you can manually re-create parts of the routes in Google Maps. This takes some work, but if you insist on using Google Maps (like several of our customers do), this is the best way to do it.

Please feel free to reach out to me if you need any further help. I would be happy to help you. Frank@360roadbooks.com

Kind regards,
Frank
