How to Use This Gallipolis Ferry, West Virginia Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Gallipolis Ferry, West 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 West 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 Gallipolis Ferry.
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.

ZIP code: 25515.Gallipolis Ferry occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the persistent, winding course of Sand Fork Crab Creek. It lies 26.5 miles north-northwest of Teays Valley, WV (from Teays Valley, WV: bearing 327°T), and is situated 6.1 miles south-southwest of Point Pleasant. The landscape here is characterized by the soft, heavy green of deciduous timber and the rhythmic rise of terrain that eventually reaches toward the distant silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. Light lingers in the hollows, often catching the mist that gathers near the Public Use Area, where the land opens into manageable, grassy expanses. Two miles from the quiet concentration of Sand Hollow, the earth feels settled and ancient, marked by the slow migration of soil and the persistent growth of hardwood thickets that define the regional horizon.
Gallipolis Ferry maintains a character forged by the steady, industrious spirit of those who have long worked the timber and the soil of these river-adjacent plains. The local economy remains tethered to the land, drawing on a legacy of resourcefulness that keeps the pace of daily life deliberate and unadorned. Though the Wayne National Forest - Ironton Ranger District sits seventeen miles away, its presence is felt in the deep, resonant stillness that falls over the area at dusk. Life here moves without pretense, a quiet continuation of a history where the presence of the water and the shelter of the ridges provide a constant, grounding rhythm for all who dwell within these borders.

About This Gallipolis Ferry Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gallipolis Ferry, West Virginia. Coordinates: 38.770637, -82.198758. 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 Gallipolis Ferry includes the ZIP code (25515), telephone area code (304), county seat of Mason County (Point Pleasant), and school district assignment (Mason County School District).
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.
