Explore Castanea, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Castanea, Pennsylvania. 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 Pennsylvania 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 Castanea.
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.

Castanea emerges from the earth where the steady, rhythmic pulse of Harveys Run carves a path through the landscape, defining the very contours of the ground. It lies 23.7 miles west-southwest of Williamsport, PA (from Williamsport, PA: bearing 250°T), and is situated 1.2 miles southeast of Lock Haven. The geology here speaks of an ancient, folded terrain, where the land rises in deliberate, quiet ridges that suggest the distant, hazy blue presence of the Appalachian Mountains on the far horizon. A mile away, the surface of Upper Castanea Reservoir holds the sky in a mirror of flat, unmoving slate, while the nearby Axe Factory Hollow deepens the shadows of the late afternoon. Within the borders of Harvey's Run Park, the air carries a crisp, earthen scent, grounded by the steady persistence of the waterway that has shaped these slopes long before the first foundations were laid.
Castanea bears the quiet weight of an industrial legacy, once tied to the extraction and movement of resources that fueled the growth of the surrounding region. The local economy has shifted over the decades, moving away from the heavy labor of the past toward a slower, more deliberate pace of life that persists in the architecture of the streets. Residents often find their way to the Kammerdiner Cross Line Trail, walking paths that trace the intersection of deep-rooted history and the present day. There is a distinct, understated character to the way the sun catches the siding of older homes as evening approaches, marking the end of a workday that feels connected to the land rather than detached from it. Even with the influence of larger regional centers, the identity of Castanea remains tied to this specific topography, where the memory of the forge and the forest persists in the silence between the trees.

Detailed location data for Castanea includes the ZIP code (17745, 17726), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Clinton County (Lock Haven), and school district assignment (Keystone Central 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.
