How to Use This Cliftondale Park, Virginia Map

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

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 Cliftondale Park, Virginia

Cliftondale Park is a locality in Alleghany County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 266. The population density is 426.2 people per km². Cliftondale Park is located at 37.8235°N, 79.7987°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 24422.

Cliftondale Park emerges from the landscape where the Dry Run carves a persistent, narrow path through the earth, marking the transition between the low-lying plains and the distant rise of the Appalachian Mountains. It lies 34.2 miles north-northeast of Hollins, VA (from Hollins, VA: bearing 13°T), and is situated 1.5 miles east-northeast of Clifton Forge. The air here holds a distinct, crisp weight, cooling quickly as shadows lengthen across the soil, while the proximity to the George Washington National Forest ensures that the tree line remains a constant, dark presence on the horizon. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the land shifts into the quiet depressions of Rockbury Hollow, where the light at dusk settles in thin, golden layers against the trunks of oaks and pines. This geography dictates a slow, deliberate pace, where the seasonal turning of the foliage serves as the primary clock for those who walk the nearby Brushy Hollow Trail.

Cliftondale Park sustains itself through a quiet continuity, drawing strength from the timber and agricultural legacies that have shaped this region for generations. Economic life remains tethered to the rhythms of the land and the nearby James River Ranger District, where the stewardship of natural resources remains a quiet but vital preoccupation. While the influence of larger, modern corridors hums in the distance, the daily existence in Cliftondale Park favors the durability of local trade and the maintenance of a landscape that feels largely unchanged by the haste of the outside world. Residents often look toward the shimmering expanse of Lake Moomaw when seeking the stillness of deeper water, yet they remain anchored to the modest, hardworking character of a valley that values the slow accumulation of history over the flash of modern development.

About This Cliftondale Park Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cliftondale Park, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.823462, -79.79866. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

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.
