How to Use This Wilton, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Wilton emerges from the transition between dense northern timber and the expansive, flat horizons that define this inland reach of the continent. It lies 6.0 miles west-northwest of Bemidji, MN (from Bemidji, MN: bearing 290°T), and is situated 40.3 miles north of Park Rapids. Grant Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the local topography, its waters serving as a primary artery for the surrounding terrain before the land yields to the expansive, protected woodlands of the Mississippi Headwaters State Forest. Here, the air carries a distinct, crisp clarity, particularly as the low, slanted light of late afternoon catches the frost-tipped grasses. Only two miles distant, Twin Lakes offer a quiet, reflective surface that mirrors the shifting grays and ochres of the sky, grounding the landscape in a stillness that feels both ancient and immediate.

Wilton maintains an unpretentious pace, its character shaped by the enduring legacy of the North Woods and the quiet industry of those who manage the timber and soil. The economy remains tethered to the rhythmic demands of the seasons, where the long, deep winters dictate the cycle of labor and rest, fostering a culture of resilience among the inhabitants. History resides in the modest architecture and the deliberate, measured way the village occupies the space between the forest edge and the creek, far from the frantic noise of more crowded latitudes. Life in Wilton unfolds with a steady, predictable gravity, honoring a heritage of settlement that values the quietude found in the vast, open spaces of the regional interior.

About This Wilton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wilton, Minnesota. Coordinates: 47.50748, -94.999767. 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 Wilton includes the ZIP code (56093, 56601), telephone area code (320), county seat of Beltrami County (Bemidji), and school district assignment (Bemidji Public 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.
