Details
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. Many maps include street plans and additional notes on the region. For more details see individual descriptions.
In this title: only very basic relief shading, so the map is more suitable for reference rather than for walking, as it does not have contours and shows only a few of the local footpaths, without indicating Garfagnana Trekking or other hiking routes in this area. Tourist information includes places of interest and campsites. No geographical coordinates are given. Map legend includes English.
