How to Use This Montvale, Virginia Map

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

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 Montvale, Virginia

Montvale is a locality in Bedford County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 635. The population density is 101.6 people per km². Montvale is located at 37.3846°N, 79.7311°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 24122, 24064.

Montvale reveals itself through the steady, insistent movement of the South Fork Goose Creek, which carves a modest path through the lowlands where the soil holds the damp, dark scent of deep-rooted oaks. It lies 12.0 miles east-northeast of Hollins, VA (from Hollins, VA: bearing 76°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east of Cloverdale. The horizon remains wide and open, though the distant, hazy violet silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains press against the sky, marking the boundary of a world that feels both expansive and contained. Sunlight here possesses a heavy, amber quality in the late afternoon, catching the turning leaves and the dust rising from gravel shoulders, while the proximity of Bedford Rec Site 2 offers a quiet sanctuary for those who track the shifting patterns of the local canopy. Within this landscape, the stillness is punctuated by the sudden flight of a hawk or the rhythmic, metallic clatter of a passing train, grounding the senses in a geography defined by its inland permanence and the slow, deliberate work of water upon the earth.

History in Montvale lingers in the quiet persistence of its land-use, where the economy has long favored the patient yields of agriculture and the maintenance of the regional rail corridors that once stitched the interior together. Residents walk the Spec Mines Trail with the casual awareness of those who know the terrain’s hidden folds, such as the distant, quiet basin of Hanging Rock Hollow, which keeps its secrets in the shadows of the limestone. Though the bustling pressure of the urban centers feels a world away, the proximity to Salt Pond provides a mirror for the changing seasons, reflecting the gray, leaden skies of winter and the pale, shimmering heat of July. Life here follows the cadence of the seasons rather than the demands of a clock, maintaining a character forged by a long, colonial memory and the practical, unadorned resilience of people who have learned to thrive in the quiet spaces between the mountains.

About This Montvale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Montvale, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.384582, -79.731148. 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 Montvale includes the ZIP code (24122, 24064), telephone area code (276, 540), county seat of Bedford County (Bedford), and school district assignment (Bedford 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.
