Madeira we have been able to comprehensively update our digital database to produce a new 6th Edition. Significant changes include the new road system around Cabo Girau, a new 'roads in construction' layer showing proposed road developments, new road numbering system, plus the hundreds of updates to walking trails and dirt roads surveyed during Shirley and Mike's research.

Roads; Motorway (Via Rapida), major roads, secondary roads, minor roads & tarmacked lanes up-to-date at June 2009 for all the new roads and tunnels; including the new road numbering system. Tracks & Trails; Unsurfaced (dirt) roads and walking trails. Heights; 100 & 50 metre contours, height & trig points in metres, height background colours in 200 metre colour bands. Grid; 1 minute Latitude Longitude grid with WGS84 Datum. Published Walking Routes; 'red dashed line' walking routes 'tracked' onto the map from new Walk! Madeira while Shirley Whitehead's Madeira Walks and other published walking routes are shown in 'green dashed line'. Madeira Tour & Trail Map 6th Edition has been produced in 'Map-Paper' and 'Super-Durable' versions. If you are just planning a one-off trip to Madeira you might want to save £3 by buying the 'Map-Paper' version. Is it worth paying £8.99 for the Super-Durable version? Yes, it is. You get the best Madeira map that is waterproof, feels like silk but has incredible strength that will survive rough use for years to come - invest in the best. Still not convinced? Just ask anyone who has used a DWG Super-Durable Map, they'll soon tell you the advantages.
