Indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map of Slovakia 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.

Road and rail networks are easy to see on a clear base which presents topography by altitude colouring with contours, spot heights, mountain passes and names of mountain ranges. Road network includes selected unsurfaced local roads, highlights scenic routes and shows driving distances on main roads. Roads closed to motorized traffic are prominently marked.

National parks and protected areas are marked and symbols highlight various places of interest: picturesque towns and villages, campsites and youth hostels, UNESCO world heritage sites, archaeological remains and museums, viewpoints, spas and hot springs, etc.

Coverage of the border areas of Poland includes the foothills of the Tatra Mountains and several national and regional parks. The map has a latitude and longitude grid at intervals of 15’, UTM margin ticks at 10km, and an extensive index of localities. 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.
