Description

Wegenkaart Peru

The map divides the country north/south, approximately along the line between the Cordillera Blanca and Cordillera Huyahuash, with very little overlap between the two sides. Topography is very effectively presented by altitude colouring, with spot heights and additional graphics for swamps and marshland, glaciers and volcanos.

The map shows the country’s road network distinguishing between all-weather and seasonable roads and indicates driving distances on main routes. Railway lines, including the popular routes linking Cusco with Puno and Arequipa are very clearly shown. The map also shows local airports and airstrips, as well as internal administrative boundaries with names of the provinces.

National parks are highlighted and symbols indicate various other places of interest, including the country archaeological sites.
