Gooi & Vechtstreek: Hilversum – Amersfoort – Utrecht
Gooi and Vechtstreek – a popular hiking area south-east of Amsterdam – on a light, double-sided, waterproof and tear-resistant, GPS-compatible maps at 1:25,000 from ANWB, the country’s main motoring and touring organization. Coverage on the northern side extends southwards from the historic town of Naarden, and west/east between the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal and Baarn; the southern side presents the area between Utrecht and Amersfoort. Current 2015 edition of this title does not yet show the network of junctions and waymarked routes.Maps in the series have contours at 2.5 or 5m intervals with spot heights, and show all the topographic features and landmarks expected of survey mapping at this scale. Unusually for a topographic survey, the maps also have colouring and/or graphics to show 14 different types of vegetation or land use (heath, dunes, marshland, orchards, arable land, etc). Where already established on the ground, an overprint highlights the national network of numbered junctions joined by waymarked connecting trails in either direction – a system which enables hikers to plan their own routes. Also marked are locations of TOPs where one can leave the car. Each map covers an area of approx. 12 x 26kms, with an overlap between the sides. The maps have the lines of the Dutch National Grid at intervals of 1km. Map legend, with an extensive list of the various topographic features and landmarks, includes English.
