This is a folded trail map of the valley in which Kathmandu sits, showing towns and villages, hiking routes, and roads at a scale of 1:50 000. The map shows glaciers, elevations, rivers, forested areas, and cultivated areas.

The contour intervals are at 40 meters giving a very clear idea of the topography. The legend is in English.

For many years this series of maps were the best and often the only coverage of these areas and as such are quoted or recommended in most trekking and climbing guides to Nepal.
