Welcome to Mapping Europe
Mapping Europe is for armchair travelers to enjoy how the world is put together, and what wonders lie just over the horizon.
Mapping Europe is for the traveler planning a vacation, or reliving one.
We'll be exploring the ways of representing the earth and the people who've changed it by a variety of mapping techniques, including Google maps, hand drawn sketch maps, and interactive Flash maps.

Paper Travel Planning Maps
Mapping Europe partners with TrekTools, who offers several lines of European maps that you'd better order through the Internet, because it's likely you won't find them until you get to Europe, like the French Institut Géographic National (IGN) maps, which include the Walking Maps, Cartes de Randonnee, and the Excursion Maps (Blue Series).
Other European mapmakers include Freytag & Berndt and the Touring Club Italiano.
