Portugal at 1:350,000 on an indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map 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.

Light altitude colouring with contours, peak heights and graphics for swamps presents the country’s topography. Road network includes selected small local roads and country tracks and gives driving distances on main and secondary routes. Railway lines are included and local airports are marked. The map also shows internal administrative divisions with names of the provinces.

National parks and other protected areas are highlighted and a range of symbols mark various places of interest including campsites, UNESCO World Heritage sites and other historical or cultural monuments, viewpoints, golf courses, etc. Latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 10’ intervals. The map has 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 maps in this series have been published in Britain by Rough Guides with the same cartography. The remaining titles are listed on our website in their original Reise Know-How editions.

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.
