National Geographic Trails Illustrated® Map Series

Maps > HikeWNC's Maps

Where available, this series represents the best option a hiker has for a bring-along map. Each one is printed on tear-resistant, waterproof material and folds into a convenient size for packing. The map itself is based on exact reproductions of USGS topographic maps - but updated with current trails and other features to make it as accurate as possible. Multiple USGS quads of the mapped area are joined seamlessly for ease of use. Trails are easily identified by uses - hiking, biking, horseback riding, skiing - and many other points of interest are easily identified. The maps also show the borders between public and private land for cross-country travel.
