Explore Hackleburg, Alabama, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hackleburg, Alabama. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Alabama or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Hackleburg.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Hackleburg emerges from the red-clay landscape where the quiet currents of the Baggett Branch carve a path through the dense, verdant growth of the Alabama interior. It lies 16.9 miles south-southwest of Russellville, AL (from Russellville, AL: bearing 200°T), and is situated 13.1 miles northeast of Hamilton. The terrain here is defined by a slow, rhythmic elevation that reaches toward the distant silhouette of Chestnut Ridge, while the nearby Prospect Hollow creates a sheltered basin that traps the golden, heavy light of late afternoon. Just three miles away, the surface of Tyre Mill Pond remains a glassy mirror for the surrounding hardwoods, offering a stillness that seems to hold the very breath of the woods in suspension. The air carries the scent of damp earth and pine needles, a heavy, humid weight that settles over the fields and suggests a world governed by the seasons rather than the ticking of a clock.
Hackleburg maintains a character forged by the resilience of its people and the shifting demands of its industrial legacy, having long served as a hub for textile manufacturing that once defined the regional economy. This history of production remains visible in the sturdy, utilitarian architecture that anchors the streetscape, standing as a quiet record of generations who labored to transform raw fibers into cloth. Residents seeking recreation often look toward the Haleyville Sports Complex, a space that draws the community together under the open sky for youth leagues and seasonal gatherings. Life in Hackleburg moves with an unpretentious grace, where the focus remains on the continuity of family and the slow, steady cultivation of the land, leaving the frantic pace of the wider world to dissolve at the edges of the horizon.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
