On the paired iPhone tap on:
Watch > My Watch
and scroll down to see if the Maps app is there. If so, tap on Maps and make sure the desired options are enabled. If not, The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
