Primorska - Trieste Kartografija Tourist Map-Guide Set

Primorska - Trieste region in a series of double-sided maps at 1:40,000 from Kartografija in Ljubljana, accompanied by bilingual guides with descriptions of hiking trails, cycling routes, places of interest, lists of mountain huts, etc.

The maps have contours at 20m intervals, enhanced by relief shading and graphics to provide a very effective picture of the topography. Waymarked hiking trails and cycling routes are prominently highlighted and cross-referenced to their descriptions in the accompanying guides. A wide range of symbols provide information on various types of accommodation (rural hotels, motels, farms, mountain huts, campsites), recreational facilities, picturesque locations, etc. For drivers, locations of petrol stations are marked. Each map is double-sided, with a good overlap between the sides, and has latitude and longitude lines at 2’ intervals.

The accompanying pocket guides are bilingual, Slovenian/English, with around 60 to 80 pages. Approximately half are descriptions of places of interest, illustrated by colour photos. Descriptions of hiking routes give timings and the degree of difficulty, as do notes for cycling routes which are also accompanied by route profiles. Also provided is a list of mountain huts.

Map legends and all the text include English.

*In this title:* the 79-page guide includes 23 hiking trails and 12 cycling routes.
