How to Use This Walpack, New Jersey Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Walpack, New Jersey. 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 New Jersey 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 Walpack.

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 Walpack, New Jersey

Walpack is a locality in Sussex County, New Jersey, United States. It is a small community with a population of 10. The population density is 1.0 people per km². Walpack is located at 41.1464°N, 74.8955°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 07881.

Walpack maintains a quiet sovereignty over the lowlands where the Flat Brook carves its path through the bedrock, pulling cold, clear water toward the wider valley floors. It lies 15.5 miles west-northwest of Sparta, NJ (from Sparta, NJ: bearing 300°T), and is situated 9.6 miles northwest of Newton. The landscape here is defined by the heavy, green shadow of the Kittatinny Mountains rising in the distance, their ridgeline acting as a permanent, jagged boundary against the sky. Within the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, the earth feels reclaimed by a deliberate, patient wildness, where the silence is broken only by the rhythmic churn of the creek or the distant, muffled tumble of Tillman Falls. Sunlight here hits the valley floor with a slanted, heavy intensity, turning the dense thickets of Stokes State Forest into a complex mosaic of deep shadow and sharp, golden edges.

Walpack exists as a ghost of its former self, a place where the remnants of agricultural ambition have been softened by decades of federal protection and the slow creep of the woods. The economy of the past—once rooted in the stubborn labor of small-scale farming and the local mill—has long since surrendered to the quietude of a protected landscape, where the primary harvest is now the preservation of silence itself. History remains visible in the skeletal foundations and weathered timber of houses left behind, standing as quiet witnesses to a time when the pulse of the valley beat faster. Travelers who seek out the rugged terrain might find themselves wandering near Hemlock Lake or testing the solitude of the landscape, far removed from the frantic pace of the state’s more crowded corridors, finding instead a region where the land dictates the pace of existence.

About This Walpack Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Walpack, New Jersey. Coordinates: 41.146434, -74.89552. 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 Walpack includes the ZIP code (07881), telephone area code (732, 848), county seat of Sussex County (Newton), and school district assignment.

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.
