National Geographic Road Atlas 2024: Adventure Edition

National Geographic's Road Atlas: Adventure Edition, is the ideal companion for the next time you hit the road. Includes up-to-date road maps for all 50 U.S. States, plus Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico. Major cities and metropolitan areas are shown in detail with inset maps that include popular attractions, infrastructure and points-of-interest.

Setting this atlas apart from all other road atlases are the inclusion of detailed maps and guidebook-like recommendations on the top 100 destinations for adventure, plus the top 24 most visited National Parks. An additional resources section provides contact information for local tourism offices, plus a place name index to help easily locate a specific city.

The Road Atlas: Adventure Edition is printed in the United States and features a heavy duty spiral binding and Travel Tough plastic cover for durability and lay-flat reading.

Every one should be able to read a map!

And everyone should have an atlas in their car. In additioin, I would recommend a state map for the state where you live and anywhere else you will do extensive driving. If you are a AAA member, they can supply maps for any planned trip. But this is a great accessory for your car. Kids love learning to plot out a trip and keep track of progress. And as unbelievable as it may seem, there are MANY MANY places in the US where your GPS will not work.

Every home needs a Road Atlas

What a joy it is to scan the whole state or even the country to plan any road trip I want. So much easier teaching my daughter how to plan her road trips using an illustrative and informative atlas like this instead of just relying on some voice to tell her point-by-point where to go.

Great for High Level Planning Or Backup

Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2023

My kids laughed when I said I was ordering a paper nap, but it’s just so much more than that. I really like how this is spiral bound and has a splash resistant cover on the front and back; but let’s talk about it’s functionality. The atlas is organized well, and color coded to help quickly navigate the contents. It does require a magnifying glass for most people over 40, but is still large enough to plan a route or see an alternative path is you’re looking to wander. Sure it’s paper and Google can get you someplace faster, but I really enjoy just looking this over and discovering new destinations and routes for myself. Is it perfect, of course not, I did find a third Nogales where Naco should be, but I have no doubt that with this atlas in my car, I wouldn’t be lost for long.

I bought this along with the 100th anniversary edition to compare the two. The National Park edition is thinner because it has less detail. One benefit is that you can see the whole state on the National Park version where the 100th Anniversary edition is broken up into sections. The fact that it’s broken up on pages makes full state navigation tougher but its much easier on the eyes with more detail as well.

I love the size of this atlas. It isn't too small or too big. It will come in handy when we take trips in our RV. I am old school and still like to use a map in addition to GPS since with GPS you can't and shouldn't always trust the route it is going to take you on, thus, this atlas. I highly recommend this atlas for anyone that does any traveling at all.

First and only Road Atlas 🤷🏻‍♀️

Reviewed in Canada on May 12, 2022

Looking forward to planning upcoming road trips and I thought a Road Atlas was a good idea. Previous reviewers indicated much of Northern Canada is not shown, and only 2 pages show roads in Mexico but I’m pleased with the detail and size (it’s big!) - I’m sure it will suffice for my needs. I like that it gives little blurbs about the national parks, and lists some possible destinations for things like hiking, paddling, climbing, birding etc.

I bought this because I'm going to go camping out west, and wanted a map with lots of campgrounds, and information about them. It had tons of information about climbing mountains and riding your bicycles around, so if that's what you plan to do it's great for you. I plan on camping out at many campgrounds and riding my dirt bike on back trails. I did not feel there was a lot of information about campgrounds and what other activities could be done there. My old Walmart Rand McNally seemed to have had better information

Not as detailed as road atlas but I can find events that occur outside America. Thanks for the opportunity to share this great purchase.
