Lake Inari Map

How to read this map
Its surface lies about 118 m (387 ft) above sea level. Inflows include Ivalo River and Juutuanjoki. It drains through Paatsjoki.
The blue outline marks Lake Inari as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Vadsø.
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, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.
The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the outline of Lake Inari 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 Lake Inari is, not a surveyed boundary.
