Tennessee Shaded Relief Map
Tennessee’s elevation story is more dramatic than most people expect from a southeastern state, and relief shading makes it readable at a glance: the Great Smoky Mountains and Unaka Range rising steeply along the eastern edge, stepping down through the Cumberland Plateau and Ridge and Valley country, then flattening across the central basin around Nashville and the western lowlands at the Mississippi River.
On the map:
- Shaded relief terrain across all 95 counties
- County boundaries with major towns and cities
- Elevation scale in meters and feet
- Distance scale in miles and kilometers
State information panel:
- Flag, motto, bird, flower, and tree
- Total area, population, and origin of the name
- Historical, anecdotal, and geographical notes
Map Shop finishes each to order in laminated, mounted, railed, framed, or spring-roller form.
