Since you ask!
Google earth has some usefulness but we should remember that it is a collection of satellite (way out of date) images, drawings, photographs, screenshots etc all stitched together with very clever software.
For finding interesting villages, features, places, wild camps, fabulous local restaurants and accomodation etc, what works for me:
is the purchase of quality topography maps both electronic and paper combined with route planning on my sat-nav set up with the way I wish it to calculate and guide me.
