Garmin Oregon 600T Mapping Handheld GPS Unit

You get a 3" sunlight readable touchscreen display with dual orientation. 3-axis compass with accelerometer and barometric altimeter sensors help you get your bearings in any location. Keep tracking on long rides thanks to a dual battery feature (2AA or rechargeable internal NiMH pack. 

The new rugged and waterproof GPS Oregon handheld unit has more features, more power and the easiest to read touchscreen Garmin have developed. 

GPS & GLONASS

From the moment you cradle the 600t in your hand, you’re ready to enter into a bold new world of Garmin outdoor navigation. With high-sensitivity GPS and GLONASS satellite tracking (more satellites mean faster fixes, even in challenging environments), preloaded European Recreational Map with shaded relief and a faster processor, you don’t just look at maps, you intuitively interact with them. Zoom in, pan out and rotate using multi-touch in any conditions and even with most gloves. The reflective display technology boosts touchscreen brightness so much that maps and displays are as vivid in full bright sunlight as they are in shade.

Touch and Go

Oregon 600t was purposely engineered for the outdoors. It features the most brilliant, sunlight readable touchscreen we’ve ever put on a Garmin handheld, strengthened for impact resistance but with multi-touch and dual orientation views that still accommodate gloved operation. Bumps, dust, dirt, humidity and water are no match for this mapping-oriented navigator.

Explore the Terrain

Oregon 600t comes preloaded with the European Recreational Map and a worldwide basemap with shaded relief — all the tools for outdoor travellers throughout Europe. Map detail includes roads, forests, terrain contours, elevation information and many points of interest.

Get Your Bearings

Oregon 600t has a built-in 3-axis electronic compass with accelerometer tilt compensation, which shows where you're heading even when you’re standing still, and not holding it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude, and you even can use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions. And with its high-sensitivity, WAAS/EGNOS and GLONASS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix® satellite prediction, Oregon 600t locates your position quicker and more precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and steep sided valleys.

Double Your Power

Besides its outstanding performance of up to 16 hrs of battery time the new Oregon 600t features our outdoor optimised dual battery system. You’ll have the option of using the internally rechargeable NiMH pack (not included) or traditional AA batteries in case there is no opportunity for charging — The NiMH pack charges automatically whenever the device is connected to external power.
