Six neighboring cells make hex grids useful for maps and route planning. Pick a convention for distance before marking terrain or movement.

Choose paper and line weight
Preview the hex grid at your chosen page size. Use lines that remain visible when printed under pencil or colored marks.
Mark terrain or a motif
Shade neighboring cells to form regions. Add a small key if different colors or symbols have different meanings.
Trace a route through neighboring cells
Move from one hex to an adjacent hex and count the steps. Label a distance scale when using the map for a game.

Try this. A hex map uses adjacency differently from a square grid. Agree the movement rules before using it in a game.
