Maps of the Alps for Independent Travellers
From Lyon to Lubljana and Milan to Munich, the European alpine region is home to a wide variety of resorts. Popular both with summer visitors and winter sports enthusiasts they range from classic names to lesser-known jewels which attract few visitors beyond the local region. Our useful maps pinpoint a whopping 640 of them and show just how easy it is for independent travellers to get there, whether by rail, air or road. All our maps are also available as wall maps and can additionally be printed at any size and onto a variety of media and customised with text or photographs to make a unique gift or simply a wonderful memory of your travels.

The Alps are one of the largest and highest mountain ranges in the world.
Some 680 miles long and up to 140 miles wide and covering an area of some 80,000 sq miles, they take in eight countries in their path.
Although a distinctive region in its own right, each country has its own feel. Check out our country pages for more information.
