A handy-sized road map of the region, with bilingual notes for tourists. The main map (scale unspecified) is a panoramic oblique-view road map of the wider region northwest of Arequipa, including Colca Canyon, Cotahuasi Canyon, the Majes and Ocoña rivers and Arequipa itself. Hill shading models the general relief to give a 3D effect, with snow capped peaks highlighted. Further detail is limited to main roads, rivers and towns. Accompanying historical and geographical notes in the margin are in Spanish and English.
On the reverse are two conventional road maps of Colca Canyon and Cotahuasi Canyon at 1:225,000 clearly indicating roads, trails, general relief, elevations, towns and villages. Symbols denote ruins, hot springs, mines, points of interest, recreational opportunities eg. trekking, river rafting and hang-gliding, and there is and indication of towns which provide accommodation and services for tourists. Further bilingual notes outline the attractions, places to visit, holidays and events. Legend is also in Spanish & English.
