Outdoor navigation meets touchscreen simplicity in the new Garmin Dakota 20.

(See also Dakota 10 with no altimeter or compass.)

Note: Touchscreen units are not advised for extended outdoor use in cold temperatures, e.g. -25 C and colder. Please see GPSMAP 60 series and 70 series: floats in water push button models.

Touch and Go

Garmin Dakota 20 makes outdoor navigation effortless with a tough, sunlight-readable, 2.6 inch colour touchscreen display. The interface is easy to use, so you’ll spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time searching for information. Both durable and waterproof, Garmin's Dakota 20 is built to withstand the elements: bumps, dust, dirt and water are no match for this rugged navigator.

Get Your Bearings

Garmin's Dakota 20 has a built-in 3-axis electronic compass, which shows your heading even when you’re standing still or not holding the device level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude, and you can even 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-enabled GPS receiver with HotFix™ satellite prediction, Dakota 20 locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons.

Find Fun

Get into paperless geocaching with the Garmin Dakota 20 by quickly downloading up to 2,000 caches, with information such as location, terrain, difficulty, hints and description — no more paper print outs and manually entered coordinates. Visit Garmin's geocaching pages for more information.

Explore the Terrain

Dakota 20 comes with built-in worldwide basemap, so you can navigate anywhere with ease. Adding more maps is easy with Garmin's wide array of detailed topographic, marine and road maps either on microSD card or loaded to internal memory.
