How to Use This Round Lake, Minnesota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Round Lake, Minnesota. 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 Minnesota 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 Round Lake.

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.

Round Lake stretches across the expansive, fertile plains of southwestern Minnesota, where the horizon remains wide and unobstructed by anything save for the occasional rise of a distant grain elevator. It lies 8.4 miles southeast of Worthington, MN (from Worthington, MN: bearing 131°T), and is situated 17.3 miles northeast of Sibley. The landscape is defined by the subtle, rhythmic swell of the prairie, a vast expanse of dark soil and wild grasses that hold the morning frost long after the sun has climbed high into the pale blue sky. Two miles away, the waters of Round Lake offer a quiet mirror to the changing seasons, providing a sanctuary for migratory birds that pass through the nearby Round Lake State Wildlife Management Area. The air here carries a crisp, clean weight, particularly in the autumn when the light grows thin and sharp, turning the fields into a deep, burnished gold that seems to vibrate against the cooling earth.

History in Round Lake is measured in the steady turning of the seasons and the enduring labor of those who first broke the prairie sod to establish a life on this open expanse. The local economy remains deeply rooted in the productivity of the soil, with agricultural rhythms dictating the movement of the day and the quiet prosperity of the region. Four miles away, the West Fork Little Sioux River carves a deliberate path through the landscape, serving as a silent witness to the generations who have managed these farms and maintained the small-town character of the region. Even Ocheyedan Mound, rising ten miles off in the distance, serves as a grounded landmark for travelers who navigate these grid-lined roads, where the pace of life favors a thoughtful observation of the weather and the success of the harvest.

About This Round Lake Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Round Lake, Minnesota. Coordinates: 43.54052, -95.468338. 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 Round Lake includes the ZIP code (56167), telephone area code (320), county seat of Nobles County (Worthington), and school district assignment (Round Lake-Brewster Public Schools).

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.
