How to Use This Ulster Park, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ulster Park, New York. 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 York 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 Ulster Park.

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 Ulster Park, New York

Ulster Park is a locality in Ulster County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,200. The population density is 280.0 people per km². Ulster Park is located at 41.8559°N, 73.9771°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12487.

Ulster Park emerges from the dense, deciduous canopy of the Hudson Valley as a quiet expanse of sloping terrain and thick woodland. It lies 5.0 miles south-southeast of Kingston, NY (from Kingston, NY: bearing 168°T), and is situated 5.4 miles north-northwest of Hyde Park. The landscape is defined by the persistent, rugged presence of Shaupeneak Ridge, which rises to dictate the local topography and shelter the surrounding forests from the harsher winds. Two miles to the east, the Hudson River carves a slow, deliberate path through the earth, its dark waters reflecting the shifting gray clouds that frequent this inland basin. Farther afield, the distant silhouette of the Catskill Mountains anchors the horizon, providing a permanent, jagged edge to the sky that serves as a constant reminder of the region’s ancient geological architecture.

Ulster Park maintains a tempo set by the seasons, rooted in a history of agrarian endeavor that once defined the economic pulse of these quiet acres. Residents move through their days with a steady, pragmatic focus, often looking toward the deeper, more secluded terrain of Mingo Hollow to find a respite from the encroachment of modern pace. While Third Lake lies five miles away, providing a localized point of stillness, the primary character of the region remains tied to the earth and the heavy, fertile soil that has supported homesteads for generations. There is a particular clarity to the light here as it filters through the trees during the late afternoon, illuminating the persistent, industrious nature of a place that values its distance from the frantic energy of the metropolitan world.

About This Ulster Park Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ulster Park, New York. Coordinates: 41.855926, -73.977083. 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 Ulster Park includes the ZIP code (12487), telephone area code (845), county seat of Ulster County (Kingston), 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.
