This Southern Europe selection focuses on dependable maps and guidebooks for the Mediterranean and nearby regions, from Iberia and southern France to Italy, the Balkans and Greece, including major islands. The aim is clear navigation, readable cartography and trustworthy local information for varied terrain and climate.

For land routes, Walking, Mountain Biking, Trail Running and Bicycles titles typically provide graded itineraries, distance and ascent data, waymarking notes and terrain descriptions. Topographic maps commonly use 1:25,000 to 1:50,000 scales for accurate contour detail, with shading, grid references and clear symbols for huts, water, transport and viewpoints.

Climbing and Sailing materials emphasise practical logistics. Climbing topos outline crag access, grades, orientation and protection. Sailing pilots and charts describe coastlines, harbours, anchorages, tides and local regulations. Durable, waterproof finishes and reinforced bindings are common for frequent use on rock or deck.

Seasonal coverage includes Ski Touring and Skating. Ski Touring maps and guides highlight ascent lines, slope angles, avalanche terrain and hut networks, often with timing estimates and escape options. Skating resources point to established routes and surfaces, with concise notes on conditions and access.

Travel and basecamp planning is supported by Camping and Travel guides, with campsite directories, transport schematics and regional overviews. Towns mapping gives street plans and highlights of services, while Nature references help identify flora, fauna and protected areas so routes can be chosen with sensitivity to the landscape.

Technic and Survival First Aid sections focus on skills and preparedness. Technique manuals and quick-reference cards cover movement, navigation, knots and repairs. Survival First Aid handbooks prioritise clear checklists, illustrations and step-by-step actions suitable for field use, often printed on weather-resistant pages.

Formats vary to suit different needs: waterproof and tear-resistant sheets for rough weather, compact pocket guides for fast travel, or larger atlases for pre-trip planning. Many titles include multilingual legends and, where available, QR links or GPS coordinates to support digital navigation. At OutdoorXL there is a broad assortment, so it is straightforward to match map scale, coverage and durability to the route or journey at hand.
