The Kompass Wandelkaart 80 St. Johann, Salzburger Land is a hiking map designed for anyone planning walks and day trips around the St. Johann region in Austria’s Salzburger Land. It’s part of Kompass’s series of Alpenlanden maps and shows the trails, nearby villages and natural features you’ll encounter on your route.
Printed at a scale of 1 : 50 000 and sized at 20 × 12 × 1.3 cm when folded, this map strikes a balance between detail and portability. The scale allows you to see both main and secondary paths without losing sight of the broader landscape, while the compact folded dimensions mean it slips easily into a jacket pocket or small pack. The map text and legends are in German, but standard hiking symbols make it straightforward to use even if you’re not fluent.
The scale 1 : 50 000 means that 1 cm on the map represents 500 m on the ground. This ratio helps you gauge walking distances and elevation changes at a glance: for example, a 10 cm stretch on the map corresponds to about 5 km in the real world. With this clarity, you can better plan your daily legs and estimate how long each section of trail will take.
