Marion said Nothing "Adventure" About it. Good map. Water resistent.. Okay not sure what they mean by "Adventure" map. Most maps show places of interest with some kind of marking. The only thing this one shows in addition to what my far cheaper Triple A map has is past World Cup stadiums (Zzzzzz!) otherwise it's a normal map with a very good coating on it. NO close-in maps of Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Colognelovely pictures, though! You can also see a good 10 miles into all surrounding countries Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, etc. I am also a member of Triple A in the U.S. and they have a map that is 97% as good in terms of easy to read, but with no coating on the paper. BUT it ha. Double Sided Map brfoss We were hoping to use this as a wall hanging. Unfortunately half of the country is printed on each size of the map. That is probably in the item description, but I didn't see it.. Four Stars Amazon Customer if anything, overly detailed - a little hard to read.
