I see an option to “import GPX file”. But nothing happens when you click it. Basically I’m looking for help with my route up Ben Nevis for the 3 Peaks. How can I use this to stay on the right path?

I've used this on many walks now and it's so easy and accurate I'd feel safe walking anywhere in any weather relying just on this. Fully recommended.
