Garmin Unleashes New eTrex GPS Series: Touchscreen & Preloaded Maps Elevate Outdoor Navigation!

Garmin, the undisputed leader in GPS technology, is set to redefine outdoor adventures with the launch of its highly anticipated new eTrex series: the eTrex Touch 25 and eTrex Touch 35. This exciting refresh breathes new life into a beloved classic, ditching the traditional buttons for a vibrant, user-friendly touchscreen interface.

Get ready for an intuitive and immersive navigation experience like never before!

For decades, the eTrex lineup has been synonymous with reliable and rugged handheld GPS devices, cherished by hikers, geocachers, and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide. The introduction of a responsive touchscreen marks a significant leap forward, making interaction with maps and features incredibly fluid and straightforward.

No more fumbling with tiny buttons in challenging conditions; a simple tap and swipe are all it takes to navigate your world.

Both the eTrex Touch 25 and Touch 35 come packed with preloaded Garmin TopoActive Europe maps, ensuring you're ready to explore right out of the box. These detailed maps provide essential information for outdoor activities, from trails and points of interest to elevation contours.

Furthermore, Garmin has sweetened the deal by including a one-year subscription to BirdsEye Satellite Imagery, offering a stunning aerial perspective to complement your ground-level maps.

The differences between the two models cater to varying levels of adventure. The eTrex Touch 35 steps up its game with an integrated barometric altimeter and an electronic 3-axis compass.

The altimeter provides precise elevation data, crucial for mountaineering and tracking ascents/descents, while the compass ensures you always know your bearing, even when standing still. These advanced features are invaluable for serious adventurers who demand maximum situational awareness.

Connectivity is another area where the eTrex Touch 35 shines.

It boasts ANT+ support, allowing it to wirelessly connect with a variety of external sensors such as heart rate monitors, speed/cadence sensors for cycling, and Garmin's tempe™ temperature sensor. This makes it an incredibly versatile companion for multi-sport enthusiasts, consolidating all vital data on one rugged device.

Bluetooth Smart is also on board, enabling smart notifications from your smartphone, keeping you connected without needing to pull out your phone in the wilderness.

Both models feature a vibrant 2.6-inch color capacitive touchscreen display, which offers excellent readability even in bright sunlight.

They are designed to be robust and weather-resistant, living up to the eTrex legacy of durability. With a long battery life, they're built to keep up with your longest expeditions. Whether you're a casual weekend explorer or a hardcore thrill-seeker, the new Garmin eTrex Touch series offers an unparalleled blend of convenience, accuracy, and advanced features, setting a new benchmark for handheld GPS devices.
