Bird's Eye Guides: Tramping in New Zealand

More about the book

This innovative tramping guide utilizes advanced 'bird's eye' computer-generated maps, providing accurate panoramic views of New Zealand's landscapes from various angles and heights. These maps offer a clear, three-dimensional representation of tramping routes, surpassing conventional topographical maps. The guide features 40 popular tramps, each accompanied by at least one bird's eye map created by Geographx, a Wellington company known for its work in the acclaimed New Zealand Geographic Atlas. Each map is complemented by essential route information and photographs from respected tramping author Shaun Barnett. The collection includes renowned Great Walks like the Milford Track, Routeburn, and Tongariro Crossing, as well as lesser-known trails such as the Queen Charlotte Track, Rees-Dart near Queenstown, and Pinnacles Hut on the Coromandel. With its exceptional readability, visual appeal, and high-quality information, this guide sets a new standard in tramping literature, poised to become a classic in the genre.
