Explore Red Lion, 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 Red Lion, 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 Red Lion.
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.

Red Lion emerges from the undulating landscape of southern Pennsylvania as a collection of sturdy brick facades and porches that catch the low, amber light of late afternoon. It lies 7.5 miles west-southwest of Emmaus, PA (from Emmaus, PA: bearing 237°T), and is situated 9.6 miles south-southwest of Hilltown. Swabia Creek traces a path through the periphery, its waters moving with a quiet purpose that mirrors the persistent industry of the surrounding soil. To the west, the land gathers itself into the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains, though here the terrain remains defined by the fertile, open fields that stretch toward the horizon. The air carries the scent of turned earth and cooling pavement, a stillness that suggests the deep, quiet rhythm of a place where the seasons dictate the pace of the day. A short distance away, the quiet canopy of Hunsicker's Grove offers a sanctuary of hardwoods, providing a cool relief from the sun that beats down upon the exposed, cultivated plains.
Red Lion maintains an architectural character rooted in the legacy of the furniture and cigar trades, industries that once defined the economic vitality of the local labor force. These histories linger in the solid, unadorned construction of the buildings, where the craftsmanship of previous generations remains visible in the window frames and brickwork. The local economy has shifted, yet Red Lion retains a self-reliant temperament, valuing the tangible over the ephemeral. Residents often traverse the local landscape toward the quiet waters of Green Lane Reservoir or seek the longer, more demanding paths of the Old Dutchman Trail when the weather turns clear. Life here moves with a steady, predictable gravity, grounded in the traditions of the Pennsylvania Dutch country and a collective dedication to the maintenance of a stable, hardworking neighborhood.

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.
