Australia's Great Desert Tracks Atlas and Guide: an A4, spiral-bound road atlas, based on the Hema's highly acclaimed series of maps covering the outback, with descriptions of 25 4WD treks across Australia’s 20 deserts.

The opening section provides a general introduction, illustrated with photos and maps on temperature and rainfall, plus safety tips for driving across such a demanding terrain. The next sections has a description of each desert and its best routes presented on map extracts, indicating their length, longest distance without 

The last section contains a road atlas with cartography specially prepared by Hema using base maps from Geoscience Australia, the country’s national survey organization. The maps show roads and 4WD tracks, as well as very rough tracks which often become overgrown and may be difficult to follow. This information is divided into two groups: roads and tracks which were plotted with a GPS and computer during the fieldwork carried out by Hema, plus other tracks shown on the GA’s 1:250,000 topographic survey maps and on other sources, but not specifically verified by the publishers. The maps also show railways with stations and man-made features important for orienteering: disused railways, vermin proof fences, towers, gates, cattle grids, wells and waterholes, etc.

Altitude colouring indicates the terrain, with parks and reserves, aboriginal lands, registered heritage areas, defence and restricted entry areas all indicated by colours. Permanent and mainly dry or salt lakes, sand ridges and cliffs are marked. The maps have a grid at intervals of 30’ with ticks at 5’. GPS coordinates are given for important junctions, isolated accommodation facilities, etc. An extensive range of symbols indicate tourist information: various types of accommodation, camping areas with facilities, stores, drinking water, medical facilities, petrol stations indicating types of fuel sold there, mechanical and tyre repairs facilities, etc. Also included are contact details for emergency services and tips for traveling across such a demanding terrain.

The wide range of 38 summer day walks in this guide explore the renowned Stelvio National Park in the Italian Rhaetian Alps. Bordering the Dolomites to the east, and Switzerland to the west, the Stelvio is one of the largest protected areas in all of the Alps. Its unspoilt landscape ranges from valley farmland to forested hillsides and alpine meadows, and up to a wilderness of rugged glaciated summits and ridges, the highest of which is Ortler, at 3905m.

The walks, a selection of routes from each of the Stelvio's valleys, are graded for difficulty and each is designed to fit into a single day, be it a couple of hours or a full day out. There is something here for many active holidaymakers, from easy strolls to strenuous climbs to panoramic peaks for experienced walkers. Also included are spectacular non-glacier summits that are accessible to walkers who want to go that bit further. A handful of walks do include brief stretches across rock faces aided by anchored cable. While they are not strictly climbing routes requiring specialist equipment, it is essential to keep away from them in bad weather.

The guidebook also includes plenty of background information on local wildlife and cuisine, as well as planning details such as what to take and dos and don'ts. An extensive appendix also contains accommodation suggestions, including campsites, B&Bs, hotels and mountain huts – known locally as ‘rifugios’.

Zeer gedetailleerde wandelkaart van een deel van Zwitserland. De topografische details van deze kaarten zijn onovertroffen; de werkelijkheid is perfect weergegeven op deze kaart van uitzonderlijk hoog niveau. Ze zijn geschikt voor alle soorten gebruik: voor eenvoudige wandeltochten in simpel terrein tot zware bergtochten en beklimmingen van de grote toppen in de Alpen. Bedenk wel dat de kaart in uiterlijk beperkt blijft tot de topografische details: er is geen toeristische informatie ingetekend als camping of gemarkeerde paden. Wandelpaden staan er wel op in gestippelde zwarte lijnen, maar zijn ondergeschikt aan de topografie. Als kaart is het de meest gedetailleerde die er te vinden is en - zoals gezegd - van topkwaliteit. De kaarten worden gemiddeld om de 3 tot 4 jaar vernieuwd, maar er zijn ook oudere kaarten die gewoon nog de laatste editie zijn.

Voor de 'gewone' bergwandelaar zijn de Kompass-wandelkaarten die inmiddels bijna heel Zwitserland dekken wellicht nuttiger: schaal 1:50.000 met ingetekende wandelroutes en andere informatie.
