North of Paris the map extends to Chantilly & Senlis, east to Fontainebleau, & south to Orléans.

Maps in Michelin’s Local Series of France have the same cartography (road network & place names shown on the maps) as the publishers’ Regional Series at 1;200, 000 but enlarged here to 1:150, 000 to provide greater clarity & larger, easier to read print size. Road network is presented in great detail, indicating width, motorway services & rest areas, dangerous or restricted entry roads, steep gradients, height & weight restrictions, etc. Scenic sections are highlighted. The maps also show selected cycle paths & nature trails. Railway lines are shown with stations & local airports are marked. Symbols indicate various places of interest, with additional star rating for best sights, based on the publishers’ Green Guides for French regions. Satellite-derived base with colouring for the forested areas & boundaries of national or regional parks shows the topography. In the mountainous regions the maps have bold, very effective relief shading, with a large number of names of peaks, passes, & other topographic features. The maps have latitude & longitude lines at 10’ intervals & are indexed. Map legend
