Alta Garrotxa – la Muga
Topographic survey of Catalonia at 1:25,000 from the Institut Cartogrร fic i Geolรฒgic de Catalunya, an attractive alternative to Spain’s national topographic survey at this scale, offering a much larger area per sheet with extensive tourist information and vivid presentation of vegetation and land use.These large, detailed maps have contours at 10m intervals enhanced by hill shading and fine colouring and/or graphics to portray of vegetation or land use (different types of woodlands, marshland, vineyards, crops, etc). An overprint highlights waymarked local and long-distance GR footpaths plus CT cycling routes. Also highlighted are picturesque locations such as villages, isolated buildings or natural features. A very wide range of symbols indicate various facilities, places of interest and recreational sites: tourist information centres, campsites and other rural accommodation, cultural heritage, vineries, wildlife observation areas, viewpoints and beauty spots, sites for recreational pursuits including horse riding, water sports, paragliding, etcThe maps are divided by the publishers into three types: Administrative Units, Natural Protected Areas, and Geographical Areas, as shown on our grid for this series. Coverage by each sheet varies; most maps present an area of 30 x 23km (19 x 14km approx). The maps have a 1km UTM grid, with latitude and longitude values shown for the map corners. Excellently presented topographic map legend is in Catalan only but the legend for the tourist information and the road network includes English.To see the list of all the titles in this series please click on the series link.
