Nepal: Schneider Trekking Maps

From £9.99

Publisher: Nelles Verlag
Scale: 1:50,000/1:100,000

Selected trekking areas of Nepal in a series of detailed maps prepared by E. Schneider and edited by Arbeitsgemeinschaft für vergleichende Hochgebirgsforschung in Germany. For several decades these maps provided the best and often the only coverage of these areas and are, therefore, quoted in most trekking or climbing guides to Nepal.

Most maps have contours at 40-m intervals and, with bold relief shading and colouring for the glaciers, provide a vivid representation of the terrain. The series shows fewer place names than on currently available alternatives such as the Nepa trekking maps or the Nepali 50K Topographic Survey. Margin ticks give UTM coordinates plus latitude and longitude. Map legend is in English. Most titles in this series have been updated in late 1980s and 1990s.
