Map is a large 960mm by 700mm double sided map sheet. Super-Durable
edition comes with a 2 year adventurous use guarantee. Specialist
concertina map folding means the 960mm by 700mm double sided map
folds quickly to its 235mm by 120mm pocket size. This most detailed
map of Madeira includes our 'Tour & Trail' level of detail
ranging from major roads to secondary roads to minor roads to
streets and camino rural narrow country roads, plus dirt roads and
walking trails. Altitude background colouring is designed to
clearly show the altitude range when travelling across the island
by car or on foot. 100 metre and 50 metre contours are clearly
shown on the map along with a large number of individual height
points and all of the official 'Trig' points. Tour & Trail
attention to detail is legendary as is our useful symbol range
including miradors, picnic areas, petrol stations, bar/restaurants
and parking areas where you can pull off the road safely. You will
easily identify springs, caves, sports grounds, cemetries, churchs,
chapels, lighthouses, towers and forts, camping areas, wind
turbines, hotels etc. For adventurers on foot Tour & Trail Maps
are researched and designed by hikers for use by hikers. Our
comprehensive gps ground surveys produce the best mapping available
but the value of this on the ground research becomes even more
important when you leave the tarmac. All of our DWG walking routes
are accurately gps surveyed giving you confidence in the accuracy
of our Tour & Trail Maps. Madeira Tour & Trail Map includes
all the walking routes from 'Madeira Walks' volumes 1 & 2 by
Shirley Whitehead highlighted in Red while other published walking
routes (printed guide books and reliable web publications) are
highlighted in Green. It all adds up to the most useful map of
Madeira that you can buy anywhere. In use maps have a very tough
life so you will appreciate our specialist concertina map fold that
allows you to quickly open the map, and more importantly fold it
back up to its pocket size after use. Paper maps will always suffer
from the repeated unfolding, folding to the section you want to
use, and then refolding. We recommend everybody to obtain our
Super-Durable editions printed with 100% oxygenation inks on
Polyart by the UK's leading map printer, which produces a map that
feels like silk but will stand up to the roughest treatment of
outdoor adventuring and yet fold up like new at the end of your
adventure. Tour & Trail Super-Durable Maps are more expensive
than paper maps, but represent better value as they produce a
lightweight map that feels like silk while being both water-proof
and incredibly tough so that after even the toughest of adventures
your Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map will fold up like new.

What with the rising cost of travel, the scary exchange rate, the cost of visas, traffic congestion on the roads to the coast, the environmental cost of air travel and – generally – a lack of time, perhaps we should revisit the concept of holidays. Do we really have to travel halfway across the world or halfway across the country for a holiday to ‘count’? After all, what makes a holiday a holiday anyway? What makes it special? Two days of genuine relaxation within 100km of your home is worth more than a week in a glamorous resort if you’re stressing out about work, are in semi-constant contact with the office, or are trying to figure out how you are going to resuscitate your credit card when you get back. A holiday is a state of mind.
It’s a series of special moments that you will treasure forever. And that’s what’s so great about staycations. No long queuing and interviews for visas, no long queues at the airport, no long flights, and no long, thousand-yard-stare, endless drives through the Karoo. By choosing a staycation, you minimise the boring, long bits of holidays, and maximize the fun, interesting bits that make for treasured memories. And, hey, you save money, save fuel, and pile up carbon credits at the same time. What’s not to love? And you would be amazed at how much there is to do so close to the city – stunning hikes and country stays, big five safaris, awesome golf, amazing adventures, romantic retreats, and genuinely fun family-friendly resorts where your kids can act their age, and so can you.
So, check it out – you’ll find amazing golf staycations, adventure staycations, safari staycations and a range of fabulous one-tank-cations spreading out from the city like the petals of a daisy. North, south, east, west – close to home is best.
