This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ritchie Lake, 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).
Drag the map to pan to any area of New Brunswick or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Ritchie Lake 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 Ritchie Lake.
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.

Ritchie Lake is a neighbourhood in Kings, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Ritchie Lake is located at 45.4179°N, 65.9712°W.
Ritchie Lake rests in a quiet hollow along the Atlantic coast, cradled by the steady rise of Spy Glass Hill. It lies 15.3 km south-west of Hampton, NB (from Hampton, NB: bearing 216°T), and is situated 14.1 km east-south-east of Browns Flat. The low light of late afternoon catches the stillness of the water, where the air grows heavy with the scent of salt and damp earth. While the Hammond River flows through the distance some 6 km away, the immediate surroundings of Ritchie Lake hold a stillness that feels ancient and undisturbed. High above, the terrain shifts toward the elevation of Spy Glass Hill, grounding the horizon in a firm, earthen line that defines the local view. The water reflects the passing clouds with a clarity that renders the sky and the lake almost indistinguishable, a mirror for the changing moods of the coastal weather. Life near Ritchie Lake maintains a character defined by the endurance of the land and the modest persistence of those who occupy it. While Silver Falls sits 14 km away as a reminder of the region’s hidden power, the immediate surroundings favor a slow, deliberate pace of work and habitation. Local traditions lean into the seasonal shifts of the Atlantic coast, where the economy remains tied to the natural yields and the rugged geography of Kings. The people here move with an awareness of the terrain, finding a quiet satisfaction in the routine maintenance of their homes and the steady, unadorned beauty of the woods that climb toward the nearby slopes.
Ritchie Lake s’étend dans une quiétude minérale, là où la lumière du crépuscule semble suspendre le mouvement du monde sur le relief accidenté de la colline Spy Glass. L’air, chargé de l’humidité saline provenant de la côte atlantique, enveloppe les terres d’une fraîcheur persistante qui façonne la patience des habitants et le rythme lent des journées. Non loin, la rivière Hammond poursuit son cheminement discret vers l’estuaire, tandis que le silence environnant souligne la présence immuable de Ritchie Lake, ce miroir d’eau niché dans une topographie où chaque soubresaut du sol raconte une géologie ancienne. Les voyageurs en quête de solitude aperçoivent parfois, dans le lointain, l'écho des chutes Silver, mais ici, c’est la terre elle-même qui dicte ses lois, offrant aux regards des horizons vastes où la végétation résiste aux vents marins. La vie s’y déploie avec une sobriété héritée des pionniers, loin des agitations urbaines, cultivant une relation intime avec les éléments. Entre la colline Spy Glass et le murmure des eaux, Ritchie Lake demeure un espace de contemplation pure, une étendue où le ciel se confond avec la ligne sombre des arbres, rappelant la force tranquille d’un paysage qui n’a besoin d’aucun artifice pour affirmer sa dignité.

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 Ritchie Lake 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.
