Of course most online mapping services including bing used here, are actually pretty pants at showing outdoor recreation related info.

The 50 year old out-of-copyright Ordnance Survey maps show contours very well, and also footpaths (where they're not out of date) : http://www.npemap.org.uk/tiles/map.html#313,345,1

The best topographic renderings of OpenStreetMap can be found at OpenCycleMap, and these look great where the footpaths have been added:
