Explore Ravine, 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 Ravine, 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 Ravine.
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.

Ravine holds a quiet authority over the landscape, where the persistent current of Swatara Creek carves a path through the earth just steps from the quiet residential lanes. It lies 13.4 miles southwest of Pottsville, PA (from Pottsville, PA: bearing 235°T), and is situated 9.1 miles northwest of Bethel. The topography here avoids the dramatic verticality of the distant Appalachian Mountains, favoring instead a steady, rhythmic succession of rises and hollows that define the local horizon. To the north, the land leans into the sheltered quiet of State Game Land 229, a sprawling expanse of managed woodland that acts as a natural buffer against the wider world. The light in the late afternoon possesses a particular clarity, catching the pale limestone dust on the roads and turning the surrounding fields into a mosaic of muted ochre and deep, enduring green.
Ravine bears the subtle, indelible marks of an economy once tethered to the extraction and movement of subterranean wealth, a heritage that lingers in the sturdy architecture of the older dwellings. While the industrial fervor of the past has softened, the local character remains defined by a pragmatic, measured pace that mirrors the steady flow of nearby water. Residents often look toward the tranquil surface of Sweet Arrow Lake for a reprieve from the workday, or traverse the landscape toward the distant Monroe Valley to observe the seasonal shifts in the agricultural cycle. Life in Ravine unfolds with a consistency that values the reliable over the fleeting, grounded by the steady persistence of the creek and the quiet, observant silence of the woods.

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.
