Trek Deck Malta Vol. 1
Innovative pack describing 52 different treks around Malta, Gozo and Comino.
This is much more than just a souvenir pack with pretty pictures of Malta. Each card represents a trail or route which can be uncovered by scanning the QR code and following the map thus revealed. The routes are graded according to difficulty, length and type of terrain. Comino (10D) and Gozo (suit of Spades) are covered as well as the main island of Malta.
The suits are coloured light olive-green for the ‘red’ suits and dark olive-green for the ‘black’ suits. In addition, each corner pip is transformed into a leaf or a tree or has the Maltese cross superimposed (D). Full instructions for use are given on the three extra cards which take the place of the Jokers. See the box
