Explore Walnut Grove, Tennessee, 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 Walnut Grove, Tennessee. 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 Tennessee 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 Walnut Grove.
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.

Walnut Grove occupies a quiet expanse of West Tennessee where the earth yields to the slow, deliberate work of seasonal rains and persistent agriculture. It lies 10.4 miles north of Atoka, TN (from Atoka, TN: bearing 359°T), and is situated 7.8 miles west-northwest of Covington. The landscape surrounding Walnut Grove consists primarily of alluvial plains and fertile fields that stretch toward the horizon, punctuated by the thick, tangled greenery of bottomland hardwoods. Only a mile away, the dark, nutrient-rich waters of Hodges Creek carve a path through the silt, while the stillness of Mrs Ardell Blankenship Lake provides a reflective surface for the shifting afternoon light just two miles to the west. On the far, hazy edge of the horizon, the faint silhouette of Sandy Ridge offers the only vertical interruption to a sky that seems wider and more expansive here than in the crowded centers of commerce.
History in Walnut Grove remains anchored to the rhythms of the soil, reflecting an economy that has long favored the cultivation of cotton and timber over the rapid sprawl of urban development. The presence of the Lower Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge nearby serves as a reminder of the region’s ecological depth, protecting the swampy corridors and migratory paths that define this corner of the state. Life in Walnut Grove moves with a gravity born of tradition, where the passage of time is measured not by the clock, but by the turning of the leaves and the seasonal flooding of Hatchie Island. It is a place where the air carries the scent of damp earth and drying crops, maintaining a character that is defined by the endurance of those who work the land and the quiet, persistent presence of the wild spaces that remain undisturbed by the modern world.

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.
