Narrative:
I was flying on 10/fri/01 into multiple airports for practice. Upon landing at ZZZ, I decided that my next destination would be ZZZ1. I checked my map to see if this would keep me clear of the restr area. The route showed that I would not enter the restr area as defined on the map. Using LORAN and a VOR I proceeded to ZZZ1. Ten mi out, I called the tower and alerted them to my position and intentions. At this point I was informed that I was in restr airspace and given a heading to fly. After landing at ZZZ1, I called the control tower. At this time, I was told to contact ZZZ2 center. I called them and gave them the information that they requested. I was then informed that I would receive a packet in the mail and that I would be contacted by a government agency. I have navigated around restr airspace many times in the past. I was aware of the restr airspace, but not the new restr airspace. I since then have been educated on where and how to obtain fdc NOTAMS of which I was unaware of in the past. I made an honest mistake and I apologize for it.
