Garmin GPSMAP H1 & H1i Plus

Garmin GPSMAP H1 & H1i Plus Handheld GPS devices for outdoor activities, hike & fly, and expeditions. The Garmin GPSMAP H1 and H1i Plus combine modern GPS navigation with a rugged design and extensive outdoor features. These handheld GPS devices are ideal for challenging Hike & Fly tours, vol-bivouacs, mountaineering, trekking, and expeditions. As the next-generation successors to the proven Garmin GPSMAP 67i, these devices offer enhanced usability and powerful navigation for adventures off the beaten path. The Garmin GPSMAP H1 focuses on precise navigation and orientation. The GPSMAP H1i Plus expands on these features with built-in inReach satellite communication, interactive SOS emergency calls, and additional communication options for areas without cell service. Precise GPS navigation with a modern touchscreen The Garmin GPSMAP H1 series combines a large, easy-to-read 3.5-inch color touchscreen with physical control buttons. This allows you to operate the device using either the touchscreen or the buttons—which is especially convenient in changing weather conditions or when wearing gloves. Multi-band GNSS technology enables precise positioning even in challenging terrain, such as narrow mountain valleys or densely forested areas. Pre-installed TopoActive maps help you with route planning and navigation. Additional map content and satellite imagery expand your navigation options. Garmin GPSMAP H1 – Reliable Outdoor Navigation The Garmin GPSMAP H1 is designed for outdoor enthusiasts looking for a high-performance handheld GPS device without built-in satellite communication. It combines precise positioning, topographic maps, waypoint navigation, and extensive route-planning features in a rugged device. Reliable navigation during the ascent is particularly valuable for Hike & Fly. The GPSMAP H1 is also a versatile solution for hikes, mountain tours, and multi-day trekking adventures. Garmin GPSMAP H1i Plus – Satellite Communication and SOS The Garmin GPSMAP H1i Plus enhances its navigation features with built-in inReach satellite communication. With an active satellite subscription, this allows you to send messages, share your location, and—in an emergency—trigger an interactive SOS alert to Garmin Response, even outside of cellular coverage. Especially on remote hike-and-fly tours, vol-bivouac adventures, and expeditions, the ability to communicate via satellite in both directions provides valuable additional safety. Photo and voice messages without a cellular network A standout feature of the Garmin GPSMAP H1i Plus is its advanced inReach Plus technology. With an active satellite subscription, you can send photos, text messages of up to 1,600 characters, and voice messages of up to 30 seconds directly from the device. Thanks to the built-in camera and microphone, you can document your adventures on the go and send important information even without cell service. In the event of an SOS emergency call, photos and voice messages can also help describe the situation more accurately. Long Battery Life and Rugged Construction Under suitable conditions, both GPSMAP models achieve up to 145 hours of battery life in GPS mode. In Expedition mode, up to 840 hours are possible. The GPSMAP H1i Plus achieves up to 48 hours in Performance Messaging mode or up to 425 hours in Expedition mode with 10-minute satellite tracking. The rugged housing meets IP67 protection standards and has been tested according to MIL-STD-810 for various environmental stresses. An integrated LED flashlight and a loud safety siren round out the outdoor features.
