How to Use This Wintergreen, Virginia Map

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

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.

Wintergreen rises through the rugged elevation of the interior, where the persistent pulse of Spruce Creek carves a path through the dense, verdant canopy. It lies 12.4 miles southeast of Stuarts Draft, VA (from Stuarts Draft, VA: bearing 144°T), and is situated 12.7 miles south of Waynesboro. The landscape defines itself through steep, challenging inclines and deep, hushed hollows that remain shaded long after the sun has crested the distant Blue Ridge Mountains. Two miles away, the quiet surface of Lake Monocan mirrors the shifting light, acting as a cool respite from the verticality of the terrain. Nearby, Crawford's Knob State Natural Area Preserve protects the integrity of the wilder, untouched ridges, while the shadow of Lesesne State Forest lingers over the periphery, grounding Wintergreen in a persistent, earthy silence that feels indifferent to the passing of hours.

Wintergreen draws its vitality from the seasonal rhythms of the land, shifting from the quiet industry of maintenance in the dormant months to the steady flow of visitors drawn to the high-country air. While the Little Levels basin provides a singular, expansive break in the otherwise relentless topography, the local economy leans heavily into the stewardship of these slopes and the recreational opportunities carved into the earth. For those seeking the physical demands of the wilderness, the Turkey Pen Ridge Trail offers a rigorous ascent seven miles distant, echoing the same intensity found near The Falls, where the water’s descent provides a rhythmic, percussive backdrop to the region. Life in Wintergreen proceeds with a deliberate, measured pace, defined by the necessity of navigating the steep grades and the quiet, persistent wisdom of a landscape that has long resisted the encroachment of the flat, hurried world.

About This Wintergreen Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wintergreen, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.905894, -78.928736. 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 Wintergreen includes the ZIP code (22958), telephone area code (540), county seat of Nelson County (Lovingston), and school district assignment (Nelson 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.
