Details
One of the titles in a series of handy format, light, laminated and waterproof concertina maps covering the most visited parts of Argentina, presenting a selection of tourist road maps, trekking suggestions, and street plans. The road maps in these titles do not aim to provide a detailed picture of the region’s road network, but are designed to highlight interesting routes or main tourist attractions.
Similarly, the more detailed maps of hiking areas provide just the basic indication of the topography, with very general altitude colouring, spot heights for main peaks, plus rivers and lakes, and show access roads, refuges, campsites and other accommodation facilities, viewpoints, and recommended hiking routes. The street plans show the town centres with main hotels, places of interest, bus terminals, petrol stations, etc. The maps have no geographical coordinates. Map legends are in Spanish. Some titles also include useful contact details.

- an overview map of the whole area at 1:300,000 with main roads and towns
