How to Use This Markleysburg, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Markleysburg occupies a high, quiet reach of the Allegheny Plateau where the air holds a persistent, cool clarity. It lies 35.2 miles south-southeast of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 148°T), and is situated 14.3 miles northwest of Garrett. Glade Run cuts a shallow, persistent path through the local terrain, its waters moving with a steady, unadorned purpose toward the broader basins that characterize the surrounding landscape. To the west, the horizon holds the distant, hazy suggestion of the Allegheny Mountains, while the immediate vicinity is defined by the modest, purposeful acreage of the Borough of Markleysburg Park. Just a short distance away, the deeper waters of Youghiogheny River Lake offer a reflective contrast to the smaller, swifter currents that define the local topography, and the nearby Caney Valley provides a gentle depression in the earth that catches the long, amber light of late afternoon.

Markleysburg maintains a measured pace of life that reflects its long-standing connection to the land and the modest industries of the interior. The economy here has historically favored the rhythms of the earth, relying on the steady output of the forest and field rather than the frantic pace of the industrial centers further north. Travelers moving through the region often pause to appreciate the proximity of Cucumber Falls or the quiet rigor of the Great Gorge Trail, finding in these sites a stillness that seems to permeate the local character. Beyond the reach of Savage River State Forest, the people of Markleysburg preserve a way of life that values the tangible over the ephemeral, ensuring that the legacy of this place remains as grounded as the soil beneath its streets.

About This Markleysburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Markleysburg, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 39.733133, -79.452817. 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 Markleysburg includes the ZIP code (15459), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Fayette County (Uniontown), and school district assignment (Uniontown Area 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.
