Hiking Maps for the Islands of the Azores
I'll be off to the Azores in a few weeks. I've been looking online, but I can't find any English maps with scales that are usable for hiking (≤1:50k). The best I've been able to find are these:
- 1:60k/70k in English --- https://www.mapsworldwide.com/maps-charts-atlases-c1811/azores-tour-trail-super-durable-map-p41582
- 1:50k in German --- https://mapscompany.com/products/cartes-de-randonnee-acores-n-2260-kompass

For you phone OpenStreetMap is usually pretty good with hiking trails, you can download the map in CoMaps/OrganicMaps, and there's Komoot for hiking specifically.
Thanks for your reply. However, I was looking for a physical copy of a map for this trip.
You could download the trails from AllTrails or Caltopo and print your own custom maps at exactly the scale you want - I've done this for remote areas and it works great, just get them laminated at a print shop for durability in the Azores humidity.
