Explore Pearisburg, Virginia, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pearisburg, 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 Pearisburg.
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.

Pearisburg emerges from the earth as a series of limestone ridges and deep, shadowed hollows that define the rigid, ancient spine of the Appalachian Mountains. It lies 16.0 miles north-northwest of Radford, VA (from Radford, VA: bearing 327°T), and is situated 18.9 miles west-northwest of Blacksburg. The morning sun pulls a thin, translucent veil of mist off the New River, which carves a deliberate path through the landscape, its waters cold and perpetually dark against the riverbed stones. To the north, the land rises into the dense, silent timber of the high country, while the proximity of the Narrows Reservoir offers a stillness that anchors the horizon. The air here holds a crisp, metallic edge, carrying the scent of damp shale and black walnut, a sensory reminder that Pearisburg occupies a place where the geology is as enduring as the slow, steady shift of the seasons.
Industry in Pearisburg has long been tethered to the rugged terrain, with a history forged in the extraction of minerals and the patient labor of those who settled the nearby Rye Valley. While modern commerce has shifted toward manufacturing and regional services, the quiet, functional character of the streets remains, punctuated by the simple architecture of early twentieth-century brick and timber. Residents often find their way to the Pearisburg Recreation Department to mark the rhythm of the week, a modest space that serves as a focal point for communal life away from the hum of the highway. Those seeking the wilder reaches of the terrain often look toward the Conservancy Trail or the distant, thundering spray of Big Falls, finding in these places a stark, unadorned beauty that characterizes the resilience of the people who call Pearisburg home.

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.
