How Lemap Wooden National Park Map Is Born

Every Lemap wooden map begins with an idea — to create something worthwhile, lasting, and meaningful. It's not mass production; it's careful craftsmanship. Beginning with the use of sustainable wood and the meticulous engraving of every detail, the process is intentional and layered. What starts as an empty piece of paper becomes an unfolding journey — a map that fills up with each trail taken and memory made.

It Starts With a Question

The idea for Lemap was born not at the office but during a family hike in the mountains. We stopped at the top and thought: why are maps always about geography but rarely about people? What if a map could not only give directions but also record memories?

That's where the idea of a national parks travel map came about, which would grow with you. With each route taken, with each tree marker mounted on the surface, it becomes a living adventure diary. Not just a wall ornament but a way of reliving precious moments, sharing them with friends and family, and inspiring new journeys.

Lemap is crafted in our workshop with love and soul. This is a family project—a labor of love for nature, freedom, and the idea that every person should be able to see their history not in words and figures but in peaks, paths, and the rustle of the wind.

From the Idea to the First Tree

From the very beginning, we knew that this National Parks travel map would not just reflect the terrain. We wanted it to evoke emotions. So that when a person looks at it, they would remember not coordinates but moments - morning fog in the mountains, laughter by the fire, the sound of waves on a deserted coast. Lemap's design focuses not only on precise lines but also about conveying a sense of the path, warmth, and personal connection with the land.

National Parks as Milestones

Why national parks? Because each of them is not just a territory. It is a pivotal moment when something significant occurs. A place where someone climbs a mountain for the first time, where dreams are born, where an internal shift occurs. These parks are like milestones on a personal life map.

That is why each park on the Lemap National Parks visited map is:

1. A tree as a symbol - a living marker of memory;
2. A place of power - where changes are born;
3. A personal route - part of your unique history;
4. Natural landmark - no ads or fuss, just you and nature.

First, there was an idea. Then - the first park. Then - the first tree. So, the map becomes your personal story, written in the form of routes.

The Making Process Behind the Map

It starts with the sawing of top-quality birch plywood - hard, green, and beautiful. And then there is the laser cutting: the edges of the islands are cut out with a precision of millimeters, and the names of parks and landscapes are engraved. The map surface is polished by hand to a silky-smooth finish, then coated with natural oil to maintain the wood's natural texture and lengthen its lifespan. Every wooden travel map is hand-made in a comfortable workshop in Ukraine. There is no automation or conveyors here - just attention, skill, and love for the business. Every detail goes through the hands of the creator, and that is the project's soul.

More Than a Product — a Shared Philosophy

This map is more than a wall decoration; it is a way to see how your life unfolds through the roads you travel and the horizons you open. With each new encounter, you leave personal marks on the map, marking moments and memories that are now a part of your life journey.

Every detail on the interactive wall map, from natural wood to laser engraving and special textures, evokes feelings of warmth and harmony with nature. It is not just an interior design; it is a story of your journey, saved in the material and data, which becomes more valuable with time.

The Journey Continues

This map for tracking National Parks was made in a small Ukrainian workshop, where one family invested their love for traveling, nature, and memories. But with every new location where it settles, the tale continues.

Today, Lemap lives in different corners of the world - in apartments, cottages, family nests, and with lone dreamers. All add their first tree, mark their route, and create their rendition of the National Parks by state map.

And that's its beauty: it unites individuals who love not places but what places do to them. It grows with you. The journey doesn't end with the last park - it's only the beginning.
