How to read this map

Mount Kenya rises to about 5,199 m (17,057 ft) above sea level. It belongs to Mount Kilimanjaro.

The red ring marks the summit of Mount Kenya. Towns and cities on the map include Nakuru, Thika, Embu, Nyeri, Meru, Naivasha, Nanyuki and Mwingi. Labeled countries: Kenya.

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 come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. These are small-scale educational maps, not navigation charts.
