Ultimate Adventure Map Of Britain

Despite the headlines on today’s newspapers that are screaming that we will be able to travel out of the UK this summer, I suspect that for the majority of us, it’s more likely to be another year of staycationing. So the arrival of a new map of Britain on my doorstep yesterday was welcome. But it’s not just any old map… MarvellousMaps.com make a series of these detailed themed maps of the country…

…and here’s what they say about ‘The Ultimate Adventure Map‘:

Britain is beautiful, perfectly proportioned and small enough that you can explore it properly without having to blag an enormous career break. And with so much variety – superb coastline, idyllic islands, luscious landscapes and incredible views – crammed into such a small area, Britain really is the perfect adventure playground.

ST&G’s  Joyously Busy Great British Adventure Map features over 2,500 of Britainโ€™s great wild places, mountains, islands, beaches, waterways, views, eccentric events, points of interest and long-distance routes… peppered with some randomly inspiring trivia and amusingly quirky touches. (Such asโ€ฆ Britainโ€™s top 50 adventure locationsโ€ฆ the worldโ€™s best plane flightโ€ฆ the first and so far only time someone walked naked from Landโ€™s End to John Oโ€™Groatsโ€ฆthe stunning British beach that featured in a Thai tourism ad… and the longest distance ever morris danced.)
