This map of mainland Britain that shows the huge extent of paddling
possibilities on rivers, lochs, canals and coast - some 37,000km of
paddling! Enthusiasts buy this map to plan and dream, whilst for
the newcomer to the sport it answers that question "where can I go
paddling? It is colour coded to clearly show the nature of these
waterways. Southern England and Wales is on one side of the large
B1 sheet - Scotland and the North of England on the reverse. The
base is provided by a map of Britain at 1:625,000 (ten miles to the
inch) that shows roads, towns, villages, rivers, streams and lakes
with this detail in pastel colours. Brighter colours show some 540
rivers graded by difficulty - also canals and waterways used by
motorized craft. Popular paddling trips are highlighted, as are
white water centres. The map also shows locations for selected loch
and coastal trips. Information panels give guidance, recommended
websites and guidebooks - all designed to 'open the doors' to the
world of paddling - for canoes, kayaks and SUPs.
This beautiful map developed hand in hand with cartographers and
the QuickStudy team was designed to have as many features as
possible without compromising the goal of having a great looking
wall map for school, home or office. The larger 50 by 32 inch size
was enough to include more features than almost any map at this
size. This map has been purchased in quantity by US government
officials including the CIA who conducted a thorough review before
purchasing. At this price you will not find a better quality map.
This laminated version uses a matte non-glare laminate so lights do
not create reflections that might make it hard to see the map
features. 50 by 32 inch laminated map includes: Albers Equal Area
