Switzerland Swiss Map online and printable
The Swiss Map (http://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/internet/swisstopo/en/home/products/maps/national.html), the "official" topographic map of Switzerland is available online. You also can print it, copying seems not to work.
Here: http://map.schweizmobil.ch/?lang=en
Zoom in and out with the mouse wheel.
It is the identic map as the one in paper form.
The highest zoom level is the 1:25'000 scale map, the 2nd highest the 1:50'000 and the 3rd highest the 1:100'000. Increasing detailing grade with smaller scale; the 1:25'000 contains "everything", so also all footpaths etc., so usable even for mountainbike trails etc. Also some "official" road bike, mountain bike, hiking etc. routes are available as overlays.
regards
