Cordillera Cantabrica on a detailed road map at 1:200, 000 from the Oviedo based Adrados Ediciones, presenting this mountainous region with contours at 100m intervals, altitude coluring, relief shading & UTM coordinates, plus on the reverse a panorama of the region. Since the publishers specialize in detailed hiking maps, including the best coverage of the Picos de Europa, the map
Includes:: an exceptionally large number of names of peaks, passes, etc. Symbols highlight best rock & ice climbing areas, huts & refuges, campsites, mountain rescue posts & information centres. Along the coast numerous beaches are named. Road network
Includes:: small country roads & tracks. Local railway lines are shown, although not very easy to see on the base map filled with so much information. The map has a 10km UTM grid. Map legend is in Spanish only. On the reverse is a panorama drawing of the area, looking south from the coast with León & Pontevedra in the background. Numerous towns & villages, as well as peaks of the Cordillera Cantabrica are named. An administrative map of the area shows its division into communes & highlights its many protected areas, accompanied by an index listing, where appropriate, each commune with its highest peak. Also included is a very extensive list of all the peaks in the Cordillera Cantabrica over 1200m. Accompanying notes are in Spanish only. PLEASE NOTE: all place names are in the local dialect, so Xixon for Gijón, Uvieu for Oviedo, etc. The map is printed on glossy paper & may not withstand repeated folding & unfolding whilst traveling by car, but it is ideal for finding out more about this fascinating region outside its main attraction, the Picos de Europa..
