Maryland Relief Map
Maryland packs mountains, tidewater and ocean into a state you can drive across in a few hours.
Map Shop’s shaded relief shows how abruptly it changes. The Allegheny ridges and valleys in the western panhandle, folded and steep. The Piedmont rolling east from there. Then the fall line, and past it the Coastal Plain flattening out into the Chesapeake.
The Bay does the rest. It cuts the state nearly in half, with the Eastern Shore, the tidal rivers and Assateague out on the Atlantic side.
Roads, cities and county lines print over the terrain.
