Freemap

Freemap is a custom Mapnik-based OSM renderer which aims to provide output from OSM data with particular emphasis on countryside users and walkers. Due to resource limitations it's currently restricted to the UK. OSM data is rendered using custom Mapnik rules (to distinguish between official and permissive rights of way, for example) and overlaid on NASA SRTM contours.

It's not just an OSM renderer though. Users can add countryside-specific data on top of the maps, such as walking routes and annotations including location of blocked paths, nice views and even photos.
