Explore Waltersburg, 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 Waltersburg, 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 Waltersburg.
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.

Waltersburg occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, winding course of Redstone Creek, which carves a path through the quiet earth of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 12.9 miles south of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 170°T), and is situated 6.1 miles north-northwest of Uniontown. The terrain here is defined by the deep, verdant depression of Keister Hollow, a landform that holds the morning mist long after the sun has climbed above the horizon. To the east, the distant silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains offer a jagged boundary against the sky, standing as silent observers to the changing seasons. The air in Waltersburg carries a crisp, earthen weight, smelling of damp limestone and the dense, dark canopy of Forbes State Forest that looms twelve miles to the east. At dusk, the light loses its sharpness, turning the fields into muted shades of slate and ochre as the shadows lengthen across the creek beds.
Waltersburg bears the quiet imprint of an era when the extraction of subterranean wealth dictated the pulse of the regional economy. The rhythm of daily life here remains tethered to the slow, steady habits of the plateau, far removed from the frantic pace of larger hubs. Residents often find their way toward the Smock Athletic Fields for the simple communal gatherings that mark the weekend, or they venture toward the stillness of Colonial Reservoir to watch the water reflect the shifting clouds. Despite the passage of time, the character of the place persists in the sturdy, unadorned architecture and the narrow roads that follow the natural contours of the hollow. Those seeking a longer path through the woods must travel ten miles to reach the Mile Trail, a journey that emphasizes the vast, hushed scale of the surrounding countryside.

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.
