How to Use This Lincoln, Vermont Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lincoln, Vermont. 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 Vermont 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 Lincoln.
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.

About Lincoln, Vermont

ZIP code: 05443.Lincoln emerges as a concentrated pocket of high-altitude stillness where the New Haven River carves a restless, crystalline path through the rugged terrain. It lies 26.4 miles south-southeast of South Burlington, VT (from South Burlington, VT: bearing 161°T), and is situated 10.5 miles northeast of Middlebury. The landscape surrounding Lincoln is defined by an uncompromising verticality, where the earth pushes upward toward the distant, hazy blue line of the Green Mountains. Sunlight here has a peculiar, thin clarity, often catching the mist that clings to the dense canopy of the Lincoln Municipal Forest before the day fully warms. Two miles from the village center, the quiet surface of North Pond mirrors the shifting grays and greens of the sky, while the nearby expanse of the Green Mountain National Forest offers a vast, untamed buffer against the encroaching pace of the modern world.
History in Lincoln is written in the stubborn endurance of stone foundations and the seasonal labor of the land, where the economy has long favored the patient cycles of timber and maple-sugaring. The rhythm of life follows the incline of the landscape, as inhabitants navigate the steep, winding access to the Battell Trail to reach the higher ridges that overlook the broader Bristol Flats. This is a place where the air carries the sharp, clean scent of hemlock and damp earth, suggesting a deep-rooted independence that has survived the transition from early settlement to a quiet, modern existence. Despite the isolation inherent in such high terrain, Lincoln remains a place of deliberate movement, where the simple labor of maintaining a homestead remains the primary occupation of the day.

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lincoln, Vermont. Coordinates: 44.105893, -72.997061. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.
Detailed location data for Lincoln includes the ZIP code (05443), telephone area code (802), county seat of Addison County (Middlebury), and school district assignment (Lincoln Town School District).
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.
