Indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map Madagascar with topographic and tourist information, published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed World Mapping Project. The map is double-sided to provide the best balance between a good scale and a convenient size sheet. Coverage includes the Comoros Islands and Mayotte.

Topography is indicated by altitude colouring with spot heights and mountain passes, names of mountain ranges and plateaux, seasonal rivers and lakes, mangroves and coral reefs. Road information includes seasonal tracks and indicates intermediate driving distances on main and secondary roads and locations of petrol stations. Railways, local airfields and coastal ferry connections are also shown, as well as internal administrative boundaries.

National parks and protected areas are marked and symbols highlight various places of interest: selected accommodation including campsites, UNESCO world heritage sites, rovas (former royal palaces), beaches, surfing and diving locations, viewpoints, wells, medical facilities, etc. The map has a latitude/longitude grid at intervals of 1º and an index of localities with a separate list of national parks and reserves. Map legend includes English.

”World Mapping Project” is an extensive series of maps at varying scales, aiming to provide coverage of countries and regions worldwide using clear, well presented cartography with both topographic and tourist information. Some titles in this series have been published in Britain by Rough Guides with the same original cartography and are listed on our website only under that imprint. However, if required, the original Reise Know-How editions can be ordered on request - please contact us by e-mail.

Sample of cartography:
Some elements of the cartography e.g. minor roads and contours are printed relatively faintly compared with other information such as major roads. Although clearly legible on the map, the lower contrast of these details has made them less obvious on the reproduction of the cartography presented here.
