How to Use This Old Forge, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Old Forge emerges from the dense, verdant expanse of Michaux State Forest, a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the wilderness and the rugged topography of the inland terrain. It lies 5.6 miles east-northeast of Waynesboro, PA (from Waynesboro, PA: bearing 62°T), and is situated 6.2 miles west-northwest of Carroll Valley. The Trucker Run carves a narrow, rhythmic path through the earth here, its waters contributing to the cool, damp air that drifts from the nearby Mont Alto State Forest. To the east, the silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains creates a jagged, violet boundary against the twilight, while the Waynesboro Reservoir holds a mirror to the shifting clouds above the canopy. Hikers frequent the Warrior Trail, where the ground is carpeted in the seasonal debris of oak and pine, offering a solitary connection to the deep, silent geography of Antietam Cove just a short distance away.

Industry and settlement have long negotiated their place within the quiet gravity of the woodland, with Old Forge bearing the quiet marks of a legacy built upon the extraction and use of the land’s raw materials. Economic life here remains tied to the deliberate pace of the interior, moving away from the clamor of larger industrial hubs to favor a more localized, steady existence. The architecture of the region reflects a sensible, utilitarian history, where the structures are as grounded and unpretentious as the soil they occupy. Even now, the rhythm of daily life is dictated by the turning of the seasons and the specific, muted light that filters through the trees, providing a sense of continuity that persists long after the work of the day has ceased.

About This Old Forge Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Old Forge, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.370426, -75.7409. 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 Old Forge includes the ZIP code (17268, 18518), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Franklin County (Chambersburg), and school district assignment (Old Forge 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.
