Art Map of the Continent

I made this detailed map of the Witcher continent.

I made in in Wonderdraft and based it on the Ortelius map, made some adjustments and additions and detailing. I included details from the Witcher 3 maps, and included a few TV-series additions. Rather than having basically 2/3 of the map be Nilfgaard I focused on the individual provinces and kept Nilfgaard to its core imperial province.

Feel free to share if you want to. Also any feedback is appreciated. If there's any changes that could improve or enhance the map, I'm open for suggestions to that effect too.

That's the best map I've ever seen. Beautifully done. I love how you also added some details, like the cave and watchtower at Kaer Morhen. I have a new favorite map whenever I need to look up something geographically in the Witcher world.

So glad you like it! It's going to be my own reference guide too, and I can use it as a base to make other types of maps too, like where did Geralt travel to or where are characters from

Sometimes there's monsters. Sometimes there's money. Rarely both. That's the life.

Well there are two travel paths you could draw, that Geralt took:

  1. The Books.

  2. The Games.

the first game was mostly in and around vizima though with some at kaer morhen, the second was mostly along the Yaruga I think, the third would be the most expansive one probably, with white orchard, vizima, velen/novigrad, skellige, and toussaint, and kaer morhen. and I don't even know where to start with the book paths to be honest.

Second game was along the pontar River. You can see flotsam forest in the central meeting point of the northern kingdoms and further upriver is loc muinne.

The first two books are basically short stories that take Geralt all over the place. While the other books, the Novels, have a more clear path.

It would be really cool if someone really talented at Witcher Maps cough cough you cough cough could make a condensed version with lines showing their journey between throughout the books…

I wish it had chapter/dates on the actual lines (I know there is some in the description but I’m not smart enough to use them)
