Calazo Kungsleden: Ammarnäs–Hemavan 1:50 000

Calazo has developed five maps at a scale of 1:50,000 with a unique level of detail that covers the entire stretch of the Kungsleden trail between Abisko in the north to Hemavan in the south.

This map covers the southernmost part between Ammarnäs and Hemavan, but the section also includes the entire mountain areas around Ammarfjället and north of Norra Storfjället.

This map is one of the maps we call the new generation mountain map. This means a level of detail that is not found in other maps of the same area. The terrain information is based on airborne laser scanning. In addition to completely new contour lines with an equidistance of 20 meters, watercourses and steep slopes appear significantly better than before. The trails are reproduced with greater accuracy, as are marshlands, buildings, rocky ground and difficult-to-access vegetation.

We have concluded that the best material for a map is Tyvek®. It is made of a synthetic fiber that makes the map completely insensitive to water and very tear-resistant. A Tyvek map will not tear at the folds or lose its color when you use it.
