Maps

Good printed maps of Portugal are few and far between – and very hard to find once you’re in the country. Online maps are much more accurate and reliable but if you must have a paper map then it’s a VERY good idea to buy it before you get there.

For more general information about maps, see the Roads & Maps page.

Online sources for buying Portugal maps include:

Instituto Geografico do Exercito – Portugal’s Army Geographic Institute produces large-scale topographic maps

Mapsworldwide.com – seems to have a good selection, including the detailed military maps

Stanfords – leading map retailer – has Michelin, Turinita, IGE maps etc

The Map Shop – independent retailer in Upton upon Severn. Pretty basic website but has a good range.

And – of course – you can also get cheap Michelin maps (from £4.49) via Amazon.
