How to Use This Clary, Virginia Map

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

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 Clary, Virginia

Clary is a locality in Shenandoah County, Virginia, United States. The population density is 39.2 people per km². Clary is located at 39.0254°N, 78.3647°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 22657.

Clary emerges from the low, verdant creases of the landscape where the steady, rhythmic pulse of Stickley Run defines the immediate horizon. It lies 11.8 miles northwest of Front Royal, VA (from Front Royal, VA: bearing 309°T), and is situated 2.6 miles north of Strasburg. Sunlight here has a heavy, amber quality, catching the dust motes that hover above the dense thickets and the quiet, unpaved shoulders of the roads. To the west, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Shenandoah Mountains provides a jagged anchor to the sky, while the nearby expanse of the SVBF Holding preserves a stillness that feels untouched by the frantic pace of the modern corridor. The land itself is a study in muted greens and iron-rich earth, where the air holds the cool, damp weight of the nearby Strasburg Reservoir, grounding the atmosphere in a persistent, earthy clarity.

Clary persists as a quiet node of industry and memory, its economic life shaped by the persistence of those who work the stubborn soil and the small-scale commerce that anchors the local roads. Evidence of long-standing agrarian traditions remains visible in the weather-worn barns and the careful division of fields that have been tilled for generations, reflecting a resilience that predates the encroachment of newer, faster ways of life. For those seeking the solitude of the woods, the Little Passage Trail offers a path into the deeper timber, while the distant, rushing sound of Mountain Falls serves as a reminder of the water’s persistent work in carving the surrounding terrain. Life in Clary moves with a deliberate, measured cadence, defined not by the noise of the world outside, but by the slow, seasonal shifts that dictate the rhythm of the valley.

About This Clary Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clary, Virginia. Coordinates: 39.025386, -78.364727. 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 Clary includes the ZIP code (22657), telephone area code (540), county seat of Shenandoah County (Woodstock), and school district assignment (Shenandoah 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.
