Indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map of Senegal and Gambia 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.

Topography is shown by altitude colouring with contours, spot heights, marshes and flooding zones, seasonal rivers, mangroves, deserts and quicksand areas, wells, oases, etc. Numerous national parks and protected areas are highlighted.

Road network includes local dirt tracks, indicating driving distances on main roads. Railway lines and local airfields are also marked. Internal administrative boundaries are shown with names of the provinces.

A wide range of symbols highlights various places of interest, including UNESCO heritage sites, archaeological remains, churches and mosques, selected hotels and campsites, etc. The map has a latitude and longitude grid at intervals of 30’ and an extensive index of place names. 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.
