Detailed NSW Topographic Mapping | Kosciuszko National Park, Tantangara & Snowy Mountains | Paper, Waterproof Tyvek® & Laminated

🏔️ Explore the Remote High Country of Denison and Kosciuszko National Park

Discover the remarkable alpine landscapes of the northern Snowy Mountains in New South Wales with the Denison 8626-3S Topographic Map, sourced from the official NSW Spatial Services Topographic Map Series.

Covering the Denison region south of Tantangara, this detailed map provides valuable geographical information for bushwalkers, wilderness explorers, environmental professionals, park rangers and emergency services.

Situated within the high country of Kosciuszko National Park, the Denison region is characterised by open mountain plains, forested ridgelines, snow gum woodlands and remote creek valleys.

The surrounding landscape forms part of the upper Murrumbidgee catchment and north-eastern Kosciuszko high country, where elevated terrain, extensive waterways and isolated wilderness make detailed topographic mapping particularly valuable.

The Denison sheet adjoins Tantangara 8626-3N immediately to the north, making the two maps useful companions for longer journeys through this part of the Snowy Mountains.

At a scale of 1:25,000 (1cm = 250 metres), the map reveals the landscape through detailed contour lines, waterways, roads, tracks, vegetation and natural features.

Whether you're planning a multi-day wilderness walk, examining mountain catchments or undertaking professional fieldwork, the Denison topographic map provides an excellent geographical reference.

Professionally printed by Mapworld and available in paper, waterproof DuPont™ Tyvek® and laminated finishes.
