How to read this map

The Garonne River is about 647 km (402 mi) long and drains a basin of about 56,000 km² (21,600 sq mi). It rises at Pla de Beret and flows into Gironde estuary. It flows through or along Spain and France. Tributaries include Ariège, Baïse, Gers, Lot, Tarn, Neste, Salat and Touch.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Garonne River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Toulouse, Bordeaux, Limoges, Biarritz, Agen, Brive-la-Gaillarde, Tarbes and Andorra la Vella.

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 Garonne 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 Garonne River is, not a surveyed boundary.
