Umbria - Marche

Series details

£8.50

Double-sided indexed road map of Umbria and the Marches, extending south to L’Aquila to include most of the Gran Sasso National Park. Topography is indicated by altitude colouring with spot heights. Names of mountain ranges and valleys are shown, as well as numerous peaks and hills. Road information includes minor local roads and tracks, with many scenic routes very prominently highlighted.

The map also highlights local national parks and protected areas, holiday camps, campsites and mountain refuges, viewpoints, various historical and architectural places of interest, golf courses, beaches, etc. Both a UTM grid and a latitude/longitude grid at 10’ intervals are provided, plus an extensive index. Map legend includes English.

The map has been published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed ”World Mapping Project”, 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, including the whole of 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.
