How to read this map

The highest point of the Cordillera Real is Illimani, 6,438 m (21,122 ft) above sea level. The range is about 125 km (78 mi) long.

The dashed outline marks the Cordillera Real as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include La Paz, Cochabamba, Antofagasta, San Salvador de Jujuy, Tacna, Oruro, Juliaca and Iquique. Labeled countries: Bolivia.

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 outline of the Cordillera Real come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the outline is a guide to where the Cordillera Real is, not a surveyed boundary.
