Indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map of Sardinia 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 indicated by altitude colouring with spot heights and names of mountain ranges. Road information includes local tracks, indicates driving distances on main and secondary roads, and highlights scenic routes. Railways and ferry connections are also shown.

Extensive overprint indicates locations of numerous nuraghi/nuraghes, the main type of megalithic edifices found in Sardinia, dating back before 1000 BC and today a symbol of the island’s distinctive culture.

The overprint also highlights local national parks, holiday camps, campsites and mountain refuges, viewpoints, prehistoric monuments, churches and castles, beaches, golf courses, etc. The map has a 10km UTM grid, plus latitude and longitude grid at 10’ intervals. 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: Italy, Tuscany and Sicily, have been published in Britain by Rough Guides with the same original cartography and are listed on our website only under that imprint.

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.
