Explore Mount Bethel, 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 Mount Bethel, 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 Mount Bethel.
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.

Mount Bethel emerges from the landscape where the steady, rhythmic pulse of the Jacoby Creek carves a path through the earth, defining the low-lying terrain with its persistent flow. It lies 9.1 miles southeast of Stroud, PA (from Stroud, PA: bearing 144°T), and is situated 7.5 miles south-southeast of East Stroudsburg. The air here carries the damp, earthy scent of the Mount Bethel Fens, a unique geological pocket that anchors the immediate horizon in a stillness broken only by the rustle of reeds. Beyond the creek’s edge, the land rises in subtle, deliberate shifts toward the distant silhouettes of the Pocono Mountains, which hold the sky on the far edge of the view. To the north, the calm surface of Lake Poco reflects the shifting light of the afternoon, while the dense, shadowed canopy of Worthington State Forest provides a dark, verdant contrast to the open fields. During the transition into dusk, the light loses its harshness, casting a long, amber glow that softens the sharp lines of the valley floor and turns the surrounding woods into a deep, impenetrable violet.
Mount Bethel maintains a quiet, industrious character, shaped by the legacy of agricultural roots that once relied on the fertile soil of the surrounding plains. The local economy persists with a steady, pragmatic focus, often looking toward the resources provided by the nearby Cherry Valley or the power once harnessed from the region’s waterways. While the roar of the distant Foul Rift Falls remains a singular, untamed presence in the wider geography, daily life in Mount Bethel moves with a deliberate, measured pace that favors the permanence of established farms and small-scale enterprise. The identity of the place is tied to this interior landscape, far removed from the coast, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the texture of the work and the movement of the people. This is a space defined by its connection to the land and the quiet endurance of its geography, where the history of the soil is as visible as the modern roads that traverse it.

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.
