Explore Granada, Colorado, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Granada, CO street map and move it around to re-centre it. You can change between standard map view and satellite map view by clicking the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. You can use the zoom buttons on the lower right side of the map to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG 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 Granada, Colorado. 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 Colorado or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Granada 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 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. 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 Granada.
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.

Granada, Colorado, is a place where the high-plains horizon, a vast canvas of earth and sky, eventually yields to the formidable wall of the Front Range mountains. It lies 78.5 miles west of Garden City, KS (from Garden City, KS: bearing 275°T), and is situated 17.0 miles east of Lamar. The landscape here is sculpted by a thin, clear light, especially potent at altitude, which lends a crisp, almost crystalline quality to the air. In September, this light ignites the aspens into a fleeting, fiery gold, a stark contrast to the snow that often lingers on the highest peaks even into the heart of July. The land itself feels ancient, bearing the bones of an Old West mining past, a history whispered in the dry, interior continental air that carries the scent of sagebrush and distant pine. The very texture of the earth, dry and resilient, speaks of a hardy endurance, a spirit born of sun-baked plains and the stoic gaze of enduring mountains. The economic lifeblood of Granada, though now quieter than in its boomtown days, still echoes the mining ventures that first drew settlers. This heritage, a blend of hardscrabble ambition and a deep connection to the land, informs the town's present character. While the silver veins may have thinned, the spirit of enterprise persists, often channeled into agriculture and the careful tending of the land. The rivers that cut through the surrounding terrain, once vital arteries for prospectors, now offer their own kind of bounty, their waters a bright, life-giving promise in the arid expanse. Life in Granada moves at a pace dictated not by the urgent clock of a metropolis, but by the slow, deliberate turning of seasons and the quiet unfolding of everyday routines, a rhythm that feels both grounding and profoundly peaceful under the vast Colorado sky.

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Granada, Colorado — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 38.063898, -102.310467. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service, with current observations and a 7-day forecast also powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while a Wikipedia summary or an editorially written description provides background on Granada and Prowers County.
Detailed location data for Granada includes the ZIP code (81041), telephone area code (970), county seat of Prowers County (Lamar), and school district assignment (Granada School District RE-1). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any US city or town.
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 — ensuring the correct Granada is identified even where the name is shared across multiple counties or states. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
