Australia’s best walks
Stripped-back trail maps for Australia’s Best 100 Walks book. The project involved developing a fresh cartographic system to work across 35 varied maps covering all parts of Australia at different scales – from deserts to alpine landscapes, urban neighbourhoods to the entire continent. Being an avid walker myself, this project brought back fond memories and added a few new spots to my to-do list. A selection of my faves below. The book is available here.
