Austria "Top 100 Tips" Road Atlas from Freytag & Berndt in a handy 15x26cm paperback format with descriptions of Austria’s 100 most interesting places; one of several atlases based on the cartography of their 1:200,000 road map series, enlarged in this volume to 1:150,000 to provide a clearer picture of the wealth of information shown by the maps.

Effective relief shading presents the country's terrain, with plenty of spot heights and names of peaks, mountain ranges, valleys, and other geographical features. Road network includes minor local roads and tracks and indicates toll roads, gradients, seasonal closures, roads closed to or not recommended for caravans, roads closed to motorized traffic, scenic roads and special tourist routes, etc. Railway lines are shown with stations, motor-rail services are indicated, and various types of mountain lines (cable cars, funiculars, etc) are marked.

100 of the county’s most interesting and picturesque places to visit are highlighted on the maps and cross-referenced to an opening section of the atlas where descriptions are provided for them in English, German, French and Italian.

Other interesting locations are highlighted and symbols mark locations of campsites and youth hostels, sport and recreational facilities, etc. National parks and protected areas are shown and the overprint also highlights the country’s waymarked long-distance hiking trails and selected cycling routes. The maps have no geographical coordinates. The index gives the postcode for each locality and includes locations outside the Austrian borders. Map legend includes English.

Also provided is mapping of the whole country at 1:1,000,000 for easier route planning.
