Explore Higden, 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 Higden, 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 Higden.
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.

Higden occupies a rugged expanse of the Ozark foothills, where the earth rises and falls in long, deliberate swells of limestone and clay. It lies 34.4 miles west-southwest of Batesville, AR (from Batesville, AR: bearing 247°T), and is situated 4.4 miles east-southeast of Fairfield Bay. The Little Red River carves a serpentine path through the terrain, its cool, clear waters providing a constant, low-frequency hum against the stillness of the woods. To the west, the silhouette of Mayberry Ridge darkens the horizon during the final hour of daylight, casting a long, violet shadow over the dense canopy of oak, hickory, and shortleaf pine. The damp, mineral-rich air of Eva Turnley Hollow clings to the morning, cooling the thickets before the sun burns off the mist, revealing a landscape defined by the quiet interplay of deep shade and sudden, golden clearings.
Greers Ferry Lake dominates the immediate geography, its expansive, irregular shoreline defining the local rhythm and drawing those who seek the stillness of the water. Higden functions largely as a gateway for the Greers Ferry Recreation Area, where the economy pivots toward the seasonal ebb and flow of visitors arriving to traverse the trails or navigate the reservoir. Historically, the land supported small-scale timber harvesting and subsistence farming, a heritage still legible in the weathered barns and the persistent, unhurried pace of the residents. Even as modern transit lines have tightened the connection to broader markets, the character of the place remains anchored in the seasonal cycles of the river and the quiet, enduring gravity of the forest.

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.
