National Geographic’s wall map of Scandinavia is one of the largest and most detailed maps of the region. The signature Classic style design uses a bright, easy-to-read color palette. This map features thousands of place names, accurate political boundaries, national parks, and major infrastructure networks such as roads, superhighways, airports, canals, ferry routes, and high-speed and passenger railroads. The region’s diverse terrain is detailed through accurate shaded relief, coastal bathymetry, and symbolism for water features and other land forms. Elevations of major peaks and depth soundings are expressed in meters. Inset maps provide detail of Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Jan Mayen. In addition to Norway, Sweden, and Finland, coverage includes Denmark, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Kaliningrad Oblast.

The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the frames can be much lighter and less expensive.
