Volterra, S.Gimignano: Il territorio tra le due città con guida in italiano, inglese e tedesco
One of the titles in a series of hiking maps of Tuscany, parts of Umbria, and the adjoining areas. The cartography is rather old fashioned and sometimes not as clear as in the other map series but for many areas, especially for parts of Tuscany, these are the only hiking maps available. Most maps have contours at 25-metre intervals, with some relief shading and colouring for forests. An overprint highlights hiking paths, including all the popular hiking routes such as the Grandi Sentieri della Provincia di Siena, etc. The overprint also shows campsites and, where appropriate, mountain refuges and other types of alpine accommodation. Some of the maps indicate latitude and longitude at the map corners, but with longitude sometimes based on Rome rather than Greenwich. Map legends vary, most maps include English. Some maps include street plans and additional notes on the region. For more details see individual descriptions.
In this title: an area extending from Colle di Val d'Elsa in the east to Saline di Volterra in the west, and from Casole d'Elsa in the south to Vico Val d'Elsa in the north. The map has contours at 25m intervals and spot heights. Local footpaths are shown, including some waymarked paths. Towns and villages of particular interest are highlighted. The map also shows mountain bike routes, although it is difficult to tell at times which roads and tracks the bike icons refer to. Geographical coordinates in the map corners have longitude based on Rome. On the reverse there are street plans of Volterra (indexed), Poggibonsi, San Gimignano, Colle di Val d'Elsa and Casole d'Elsa, and brief notes on the history of the region. Map legend and the notes include English.
