Hema Maps

This Hema collection brings together printed navigation and trip-planning products for Australian touring. It includes state and handy maps, regional adventure and forest maps, 4WD track maps, bound atlases and camping guides. These are paper products rather than GPS units, navigation apps or other electronic devices.

Choose according to the area you plan to visit, the geographic detail you need and how you want to use the information. A broad state or handy map can provide an overview, while a region-specific map narrows the coverage. An atlas or camping guide is better suited to buyers who want a bound reference covering the destination or type of trip named in its title.

CHOOSE THE REGION BEFORE THE FORMAT

Start with the destination shown in the product title. This prevents a familiar format or nearby place name from taking priority over the actual coverage needed for the trip.

VICTORIA AND NEARBY TOURING AREAS

Victoria has the broadest choice of regional titles in this collection. Victoria State Map and Victoria Handy Map cover the state at a broader level. More focused options include The Victorian High Country Map, Victoria's Deserts 4WD Map and maps for areas such as Dargo, Wonnangatta, Mansfield, Mt Howitt, Jamieson, Licola, Toolangi, Walhalla, Woods Point, Bright, Dartmouth, Marysville and Lake Eildon.

For a trip crossing several Victorian areas, begin with a state map or The Victorian High Country Atlas & Guide, then add a regional map for the area where closer planning matters. The Victorian High Country is also divided into North Eastern, North Western and South Eastern map titles, so match the selected title to the part of the region you intend to visit.

INTERSTATE AND REMOTE-AREA TRIPS

For broader interstate planning, the range includes handy or state maps for Tasmania, South Australia, Western Australia and the Northern Territory, plus Australia Handy Map. Destination-specific choices include The Kimberley Map, Flinders Ranges Map, Outback New South Wales Map, Birdsville & Strzelecki Tracks Map, Pilbara & Coral Coast Map, Top End and Gulf Map, Fraser Island (K'gari) Map and the Top End National Parks Map covering Litchfield, Katherine and Kakadu.

Atlas and guide options include Flinders Ranges Atlas & Guide, Cape York Atlas & Guide, Camping Guide to Tasmania and Camping Guide to South Australia. Select the title that directly names the destination rather than assuming a neighbouring regional map extends into it.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT PRINTED FORMAT

STATE AND HANDY MAPS

State and handy maps suit buyers who want broader geographic context or are travelling across a larger area. They are useful as an overview alongside a more focused regional title. Check the individual product listing to confirm the area shown and the current edition before ordering.

ADVENTURE, FOREST AND 4WD MAPS

Adventure and forest maps are destination-specific choices for planning within the named area. Examples include Yarra Valley - West Gippsland Adventure Map, Kosciuszko National Park Forest Map, Tallarook Forest Activities Map and Wombat State Forest 4WD Map. Use the title to narrow the options, then compare the listed coverage and map scale where those details are provided.

ATLASES AND CAMPING GUIDES

Bound titles suit readers who prefer information organised across pages rather than on a folded sheet. The range includes destination atlases, 4WD touring atlases and camping guides. Choose between them by subject: a destination atlas focuses on the named region, while a camping guide or broader 4WD atlas should be selected according to the trip type and coverage described in its listing.

DECIDE HOW MUCH DETAIL YOU NEED

Map scale and geographic coverage work together. A broad map covers more territory but may not show the same local detail as a regional title. A focused map is useful for the area named on its cover, but it may not cover the full journey to and from that destination.

For trips involving several regions, combine a broader map with the relevant local title. For example, a Victoria State Map can provide state-level context while Dargo - Wonnangatta Adventure Map or Mansfield - Mt Howitt Adventure Map addresses a more specific destination. Check adjoining coverage before relying on one regional map for a route that crosses beyond the area in its title.

WHAT TO CHECK BEFORE ORDERING

Confirm that the product title matches your destination, then review the current listing for edition, coverage, scale and format information. Also check whether you are ordering a folded map, an atlas or a guide. Each listing is a separate printed product, so do not assume that another map, book, digital download, GPS unit or navigation app is included unless the listing expressly says so.

Paper maps require no vehicle fitment and have no electronic compatibility requirements. Keep them dry, protect folded maps from unnecessary crushing and store bound titles where their covers and pages will not be bent. Printed mapping should be considered alongside current conditions, closures and official local advice when planning travel.
