How to Use This Clarksville, Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Clarksville, Virginia. 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 Virginia 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 Clarksville.

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 Clarksville, Virginia

Clarksville is a locality in Mecklenburg County, Virginia, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,300. The population density is 172.4 people per km². Clarksville is located at 36.6182°N, 78.5645°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Clarksville is an incorporated locality. ZIP codes: 24340, 23927.

Clarksville emerges from the Virginia Piedmont as a convergence of earthen slopes and expansive, still waters. It lies 46.6 miles east of Danville, VA (from Danville, VA: bearing 87°T), and is situated 3.9 miles east-northeast of Henrico. Blue Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the surrounding woodland before surrendering its current to the vast, deliberate basin of John H. Kerr Reservoir. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness that seems to absorb the sharp edges of the day, leaving the landscape in a state of perpetual, quiet suspension. To the west, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains marks the horizon, a faint reminder of the rugged terrain that lies far beyond the immediate, gentle roll of the landscape.

Clarksville carries the weight of a long agrarian inheritance, where the soil once defined the rhythm of labor and the reach of the local economy. The legacy of tobacco cultivation lingers in the architecture of the older streets, though the modern pace is now dictated by the recreational pull of the water and the quiet stewardship of the land. Visitors often migrate toward the trails of Occoneechee State Park, where the forest canopy provides a dense, emerald filter for the afternoon sun. Life in Clarksville moves with the deliberate, unforced cadence of a place that has long understood how to coexist with the shifting levels of the reservoir, maintaining a steady, grounded character that resists the frantic acceleration of the wider world.

About This Clarksville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clarksville, Virginia. Coordinates: 36.618228, -78.564526. 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 Clarksville includes the ZIP code (24340, 23927), telephone area code (276), county seat of Mecklenburg County (Boydton), and school district assignment (Mecklenburg County Public Schools).

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.
