How to read this map

The highest point of the Maya Mountains is Doyle's Delight, 1,124 m (3,688 ft) above sea level. It extends across Belize and Guatemala.

The dashed outline marks the Maya Mountains as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include San Luis, Belize City, Puerto Barrios, Flores, San Ignacio, Belmopan, Livingston and Dangriga.

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 Maya Mountains 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 Maya Mountains are, not a surveyed boundary.
