Explore Bellefonte, Arkansas, 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 Bellefonte, Arkansas. 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 Arkansas 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 Bellefonte.
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.

Bellefonte occupies a quiet expanse of land where the seasonal flow of Dry Branch defines the immediate rhythm of the earth. It lies 3.9 miles east-southeast of Harrison, AR (from Harrison, AR: bearing 121°T), and is situated 32.0 miles south-southeast of Branson. The landscape here is characterized by the modest, persistent undulations of the Ozark foothills, where the soil holds the damp, cool memory of recent rains and the air carries the sharp, clean scent of crushed pine needles. To the north, the faint, hazy silhouette of Grapevine Ridge provides a sturdy boundary against the sky, while the local topography dips into the sheltered shadows of nearby Buie Hollow. Koen Park serves as a central clearing for the locality, offering a patch of open green space where the light at dusk settles in long, amber bars across the grass, turning the common weeds into gilded stalks that shiver in the cooling breeze.
Bellefonte has long persisted as a place of steady, deliberate labor, rooted in the agrarian traditions and modest commerce that have sustained the region for generations. Residents move with a measured pace that reflects the surrounding terrain, finding stability in the quietude that exists miles away from the hurried reach of larger industrial hubs. While the echoes of early settlement remain in the weathered wood of older structures, the modern economy relies on the simple, essential interactions of those who call these hills home. Beyond the immediate boundaries of the locality, the distant, thundering presence of Marble Falls provides a stark contrast to the gentle trickle of the local creek, and the expansive woods of the Henry Koen Experimental Forest offer a quiet sanctuary for those who appreciate the deep, undisturbed silence of the timberland.

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.
