This is OS mapping. In some areas, OpenStreetMap shows more footpaths
Spatial NI has online OSNI mapping. Click "Basemap Gallery" (4 squares icon at the top).
Now would be a good time for a cup of tea.

Loch an Dubh-Lochain, Knoydart
Wild camp at the head of Loch an Dubh-Lochain, Knoydart. Saturday May 28, 1988. A high-resolution digital copy of a 35mm Kodachrom 64 film transparency. Nikon FM, 35 - 70mm f3.3 - f4.5 Nikkor F-series lens. My journal entry for this part of the day records: 'Rose at 06.30 to a superb sunny morning. Breakfasted: Alpen and baked beans, a good start to the day, two mugs of tea, started packing straight away. Crawled out of my sleeping bag feeling refreshed after a full 9 hours sleep, punctuated only by occasional strong gusts of wind which really shook the tent. Still breezy in morning. Unzipped the tent and took a few photos, me and the tent. Packed and left at 08.45.'

Luinne Bheinn
Loch an Dubh-Lochain and Luinne Bheinn, Knoydart, May 27, 1988. The first day of an 11-day solo camping/backpacking trip to Knoydart, travelling by train to Mallaig to catch the boat to Inverie, and walking from there to Barrisdale, over the Mam Unndalain to Lochan nam Breac, down Glen Carnach to Sourlies, over the Mam na Cloich Airde to Strathan at the head of Loch Arkaig, and finally through Gleann a' Chaorainn and Glen Finnan to catch the train home from Glenfinnan station on June 6. A digital copy of a 35mm Kodachrome 64 film transparency. Nikon FM, 35 - 70mm f3.3 - 4.5 Nikkor F-series lens. My journal for the day records: 'Walked for about four miles up Glean an Dubh-Lochain to camp at head of Loch an Dubh Lochain. Had the place to myself. Weather good, breezy, some cloud but much sun. Evening superb. Midges came out at 9pm. Slept like a log 'til 06.30. A tiring start after a long journey and carrying a 25Kg pack but no complaints.'
