‘Always Your Adventure’ Campaign: Your Journey, Your Map, Your Story

At SplashMaps, we understand one fundamental truth: every adventure is personal. Whether it’s a weekend hike, an ambitious cross-country cycling trip, or simply exploring your local town, it’s always your adventure. That’s why we’re launching the ‘Always Your Adventure’ campaign.  It’s about tailoring to your personal journey.

What is ‘Always Your Adventure’ About?

It’s the idea that you are in control of your journey. SplashMaps is always committed to making navigation simpler and more user-friendly, and this campaign is no different. Unlike traditional fold & tear maps or digital pre-configured navigation apps, SplashMaps lets you create custom maps that reflect your way of doing things.

SplashMaps are ideal for gentle paddling on rivers or ocean-bound adventures.

Unlike any other map companies, at SplashMaps we focus on individuality, simplicity, and reliability when it comes to navigation. While many companies are moving towards complicated digital solutions, SplashMaps stands out by offering something refreshingly straightforward.

  • You decide where your map is centred, whether it’s your hometown or a far-off mountain trail.
  • You choose the format that best suits your adventure, be it a weatherproof map, wearable map scarf, or even a wall hanging/ tablecloth – whatever inspires you.
  • You add your own title, logo, or waypoints.

No GPS signals or battery life to worry about. No folding, no fuss. Our durable fabric maps are designed for the rigours of real-world adventures.  And maintenance? They’re simply thrown in the washing machine after you’ve marked them up, abused and used them.

Why Did We Create This Campaign?

Too many navigation tools out there are designed with the map maker’s convenience in mind. Not the user’s. I mean, really, when ever were fragile and folding maps, or apps that show only a tiny sliver of the world through a screen, the user experience you wanted?

Our mission is to make exploration easier, more accessible, and more enjoyable for everyone. From the casual jogger to the hardcore adventurer, ‘Always Your Adventure’ is about returning the power of navigation to you. Wherever your journey takes you—whether it’s a local park or a remote wilderness—SplashMaps ensures you have a reliable, unique guide to get you there. It’s a unique inspiration for events to look forward to, take part in and look back upon.

Products Featured in the Campaign

At the center of ‘Always Your Adventure’ is our powerful Map-Maker tool. This tool allows you to create a custom map of your chosen area in minutes, with ten versatile formats to choose from. Whether you’re seeking a wearable map for better navigation or a beautiful fabric map to spread on your table, the options are endless.
