Book excerpt: Tramping in New Zealand is a highly innovative new tramping guide, that has been developed around the latest generation of 'bird's eye' computer-generated maps. These completely accurate panoramic overviews are constructed from map data, but because they can recreate a view of the landscape from any angle or height they provide a remarkably readable and clear way of understanding the lie of the land. For trampers, these bird's eye maps offer a superb way of showing a tramping route in three dimensions. The tramps covered include our best known Great Walks, such as the Milford Track, the Routeburn and the Tongariro Crossing, and many others from both islands such as the Queen Charlotte Track, the Rees-Dart near Queenstown and the Pinnacles Hut on the Coromandel. Route guide information and photographs provided by Shaun Barnett, one of New Zealand's most respected tramping authors.
