How to read this map

The highest point of the Ligurian Apennines is Monte Maggiorasca, 1,804 m (5,919 ft) above sea level.

The dashed outline marks the Ligurian Apennines as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Rome, Milan, Naples, Turin, Florence, Salerno, Nice and Zagreb. Labeled countries: Italy.

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 Ligurian Apennines 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 Ligurian Apennines are, not a surveyed boundary.
