How to Use This Sewickley Heights, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Sewickley Heights commands a plateau of dense hardwood forests and expansive, manicured meadows that define the elevated landscape of this Pennsylvania enclave. It lies 3.9 miles northeast of Carnot-Moon, PA (from Carnot-Moon, PA: bearing 48°T), and is situated 7.9 miles west-southwest of McCandless. The morning light filters through the canopy in long, amber needles, illuminating the deep, quiet descent into Fern Hollow just a mile away. Little Sewickley Creek carves a persistent, liquid path through the terrain, its banks providing a cool, sheltered corridor for the local deer and fox populations. Beyond the immediate tree line, the geography remains defined by the rigorous, terrestrial reach of the Allegheny Mountains, which loom as a faint, violet shadow against the horizon some eighty-seven miles to the east. Within the quiet perimeter of Sewickley Heights Borough Park, the earth retains a damp, mossy scent that serves as a reminder of the region’s ancient, glacial heritage.

Gilded-age industrialists once looked upon the high ridges of Sewickley Heights and chose to establish their estates here, creating a legacy of grand architecture that persists amidst the modern residential landscape. The local economy has shifted from the agrarian roots of the nineteenth century into a quiet, private sphere, leaving the land largely to the stewardship of those who value the preservation of its wide, green vistas. Leisure remains the primary rhythm of the locale, with equestrian traditions and private gardens filling the hours that might elsewhere be claimed by urban industry. While Sechlers Lake lies four miles distant, the true character of the place is found in the stillness of its winding carriage roads and the deliberate, unhurried pace of its residents. It is a space where the heavy, soot-stained history of the surrounding industrial valley feels like a distant memory, replaced by the persistent, quiet growth of the forest.
