This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Kars, New Brunswick. 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).

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 Kars.
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.

Kars is a locality in Kings, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a town. Kars is located at 45.6000°N, 65.9833°W.
Kars rests along the steady, deep-channeled curves of the Saint John River, where the land rises to meet the rounded elevation of Nutter Hill. It lies 12.8 km north-west of Hampton, NB (from Hampton, NB: bearing 308°T), and is situated 15.8 km north-north-west of Nauwigewauk. The earth here holds the persistent coolness of the water, a dampness that clings to the valley floor when the morning mist refuses to lift from the Saint John River. Beyond the immediate rise of Nutter Hill, the landscape settles into a quiet expanse where the light at dusk turns the fields a pale, bruised violet. Five kilometers toward the interior, the stillness of Little Rocky Lake mirrors the sky, providing a hushed contrast to the moving current of the main waterway. Kars maintains a character shaped by this geography, where the slope of the terrain dictates the reach of the sun and the movement of the air. Life in Kars has long turned on the agricultural yield of the heavy, fertile soil, a tradition that persists in the quiet maintenance of fences and the seasonal preparation of the fields. The economy remains rooted in the land, reflecting a history of farming that has seen generations work the slopes surrounding Nutter Hill. Residents often look toward the Saint John River as the primary artery of the region, a feature that defined the early settlement patterns and continues to influence the pace of daily affairs. There is a distinct sobriety to the work here, a focused attention to the harvest and the seasons that keeps the spirit of Kars anchored firmly in the rhythms of the valley.
Kars se déploie avec une retenue silencieuse sous le ciel changeant de la région de Kings, là où la terre s'incline doucement vers les eaux sombres de la rivière Saint John. À proximité de la colline Nutter, le relief dessine des ondulations familières qui abritent les champs et les vergers, héritage d'une vocation agricole façonnée par la patience des générations. La lumière du soir y possède une clarté particulière, une douceur qui s'étire sur les rives et enveloppe les demeures isolées dans une quiétude presque minérale. À peine éloigné de cinq kilomètres, le lac Little Rocky ajoute une note de profondeur à cet horizon paisible, ses eaux miroitant sous les vents légers qui parcourent les vallons. Kars conserve cette allure de simplicité ancienne, rythmée par le travail des mains et le passage immuable des marées fluviales. Ici, le quotidien s'accorde au souffle de la nature, une existence humble qui se laisse deviner dans le bruissement des hautes herbes et la rectitude des clôtures longeant les chemins ruraux. Les habitants y perpétuent une manière d'être attentive aux caprices du sol et aux murmures de la rivière, trouvant dans cette géographie austère et généreuse une raison de demeurer fidèles à ce paysage singulier.

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 Kars 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.
