The double sided maps in the local series are at a perfect scale for the tourist visitor to France. The mapping is very clear with a good use of colour and even minor roads can be easily read. Scenic routes are highlighted in green with road distances shown so comprehensively that you will never be in any doubt as to how far it is to your destination. Michelin have introduced a 3D effect to the relief, in conjunction with Planet Observer of satellite image fame, but if you are in any doubt as to whether you are going up or down there are spot heights. All the usual information that you would expect to see is included in the key such as water and country parks, cycle tracks, golf courses, castles and places of general interest. The key is in both French and English. The small inset city or town plans give you just enough information to guide you round and again are very clear. The index is easy to use and should make finding your goal that much easier.
