South West Coast Path Zigzag map - 8 - Portreath to Trewellard

This zigzag map covers the Portreath to Trewellard section of the South West Coast Path, via Gwithian, Hayle, Carbis Bay, St Ives and Zennor. As well as clearly showing the line of the National Trail it also includes some circular walks. 

What is different about a Zigzag map?

The main difference is the scale – although these maps use the ever-popular Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 scale mapping they show this mapping at a larger scale – 1:16,000. This makes them very much easier to use for everyone.

They are also laminated, so you can use them in the wet without fear of them disintegrating.

As their name suggests, Zigzag maps come in a concertina strip format and with 200cm of mapping, they can follow a long distance footpath at a scale of 1:16,000 for up to 30 miles (depending on the wiggles). The maps are made for convenience; you need only unfold 2 panels at a time and then keep on flipping over to follow the path. Zigzag is laminated for weatherproofing and will still fit a pocket when folded.

Maps come with a useful scale ruler.
