Explore Hemlock Valley, British Columbia, Canada, with this interactive street and satellite map. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above the map to switch views. You can “grab” the map and drag it to re-centre it, or use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours — plus shaded relief, a labelled UTM grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below. You will find live weather, local and world news further down the page.

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hemlock Valley, British Columbia. 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 to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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).
Drag the map to pan to any area of British Columbia or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Hemlock Valley and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
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 Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Hemlock Valley.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, 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 — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue 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.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Hemlock Valley is a recreational community in New Westminster Land District, British Columbia, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Hemlock Valley is located at 49.3769°N, 121.9353°W.
Hemlock Valley rests within the rugged, steep-walled terrain of the New Westminster Land District, sheltered by the formidable presence of Harrison Hill. It lies 23.4 km north of Chilliwack, BC (from Chilliwack, BC: bearing 3°T), and is situated 14.0 km north-west of Harrison Hot Springs. The air here holds a sharp, thin clarity that persists even as the sun dips behind the high ridges, casting long, bruised shadows across the slopes. Hemlock Valley sits within a landscape of heavy timber and dramatic elevation, where the Chehalis River carves a path through the valley floor about 5 km away. To the north, the terrain rises toward the distant Stewart Glacier, which looms 33 km off like a jagged fragment of winter. Closer at hand, the stillness of Weaver Lake lies 5 km distant, its surface often mirroring the dense, dark green of the surrounding conifers. When the wind moves down from the heights, it carries the cold weight of the high country, chilling the skin and reminding those present that the wilderness here does not soften for anyone. The local economy of Hemlock Valley remains defined by the seasonal demands of the slopes and the extraction of timber, a trade that has long dictated the pace of work in this corner of the province. Life follows the demands of the seasons, shifting from the quiet, snow-heavy winters to the mud-slicked mornings of spring thaw. Beyond the immediate working landscape, the region holds a deep connection to the land that extends toward the nearby Eagle Falls, situated 10 km away, and the expansive wilderness of Sasquatch Park, which lies 17 km from the valley center. Traditions here are quiet and private, passed down among those who choose to live where the road ends and the mountain begins. Hemlock Valley maintains a character defined by its isolation, offering a stark, honest existence for those who prefer the company of the forest to the clamor of the lowlands.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS 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 for Hemlock Valley is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
