How to read this map

The Chenab River is about 1,970 km (1,230 mi) long and drains a basin of about 138,000 km² (53,300 sq mi). It rises at the Chandra River and flows into the Panjnad River. It flows through or along India and Pakistan. Tributaries include Tawi River, Ravi River, Jhelum River, Marusudar River and Bhut Nal.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Chenab River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Lahore, Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, Ludhiana, Multan, Gujranwala, Peshawar and Amritsar.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Chenab River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Chenab River is, not a surveyed boundary.
