Mapa turystyczna "Elbląg i okolice" w skali 1:55 000, opracowana w ramach bliskiej współpracy z Oddziałem PTTK w Elblągu. Tytuł "Okolice Elbląga" to tylko hasło, bo mapa obejmuje obszar szeroko pojętych okolic Elbląga. Sięga oczywiście po Frombork, Krynicę Morską, Pasłęk, Braniewo, a na wschodzie aż po Pieniężno, Ornetę, Miłakowo. Zatem niezwykle atrakcyjne, ale może niezbyt popularne turystycznie tereny Wysoczyzny Elbląskiej i północnej Warmii.
