How to Use This Montebello, Virginia Map

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

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 Montebello, Virginia

Montebello is a locality in Nelson County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 8.0 people per km². Montebello is located at 37.8637°N, 79.1378°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 24464.

Montebello emerges from the high, rugged terrain where the air grows thin and the shadows of the morning linger long against the slopes. It lies 12.8 miles south-southwest of Stuarts Draft, VA (from Stuarts Draft, VA: bearing 206°T), and is situated 19.6 miles southwest of Waynesboro. The land rises in a series of steep, wooded inclines that define the character of the immediate geography, marked by the persistent, cold flow of Irish Creek as it carves through the dense undergrowth. To the west, the distant silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains creates a jagged horizon, while the proximity to the George Washington National Forest ensures that the surrounding canopy remains vast, undisturbed, and deeply green. Even in the height of summer, the atmosphere maintains a crisp, metallic quality, as if the altitude itself filters the sunlight into a sharper, more translucent clarity.

Montebello carries the weight of an agrarian history that once relied heavily on the timber and apple orchards that defined the local economy. Today, the rhythm of life remains tethered to the quiet persistence of the mountains, with the nearby Wolf Hollow and the distant paths of the White Rock Gap Trail providing a sanctuary for those who seek the solitude of the interior wilderness. While the commercial bustle of modern centers feels a great distance away, the character of the place is defined by this isolation, where the forest floor of Lesesne State Forest serves as a reminder of the raw, untamed landscape that dictates the pace of the day. Life here moves with the deliberate, unhurried gravity of the hills, favoring the slow turning of seasons over the frantic pace of the lowlands.

About This Montebello Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Montebello, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.863747, -79.137807. 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 Montebello includes the ZIP code (24464), telephone area code (540), county seat of Nelson County (Lovingston), and school district assignment.

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.
