How to Use This Guerneville, California Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Guerneville, California. 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 California 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 Guerneville.

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.

About Guerneville, California

Guerneville is a locality in Sonoma County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,552. The population density is 181.0 people per km². Guerneville is located at 38.5172°N, 122.9899°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 95446.

Guerneville occupies a narrow, shaded corridor where the Russian River carves a deliberate path through a landscape of heavy timber and steep, rising slopes. It lies 10.2 miles southwest of Healdsburg, CA (from Healdsburg, CA: bearing 222°T), and is situated 3.8 miles west of Hacienda. The air here carries a persistent dampness, filtered through the canopy of ancient trees that define the character of Pocket Canyon and the surrounding woodland. At JK Wright Park, the ground stays cool and dark, holding the silence of the forest even as the afternoon sun strikes the higher elevations. The terrain is marked by a raw, vertical energy, where the dense growth of the interior hills creates a distinct sense of enclosure, far removed from the open expanse of the distant Coast Ranges.

Guerneville rose from the labor of the timber industry, its early foundations built upon the extraction of wood that once defined the regional economy. Today, the pace of life reflects a shift toward a quiet, seasonal rhythm, where the flow of the Russian River dictates the movement of the day. Travelers often seek out the Armstrong Nature Trail to witness the sheer scale of the remaining groves, a testament to the landscape that predates the modern settlement. While the regional influence of Lake Sonoma remains a distant point of reference, the daily existence here is tethered to the riverbanks and the narrow, winding roads that navigate the rugged, inland topography.

About This Guerneville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Guerneville, California. Coordinates: 38.517165, -122.989897. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Guerneville includes the ZIP code (95446), telephone area code (408, 669), county seat of Sonoma County (Santa Rosa), and school district assignment (West Sonoma County Union High School District).

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.
