2019 Map of Ironton

About this map

The Ohio River carves a deep valley through this industrial and forested borderland, separating the Kentucky communities of Flatwoods, Russell, and Raceland from the Ohio city of Ironton. Along the northern banks, the Lawrence County Courthouse stands as a civic anchor near Ohio University Southern, while the riverfront is threaded by the CSX Safeway Dr rail line. To the north, the landscape shifts abruptly into the densely wooded ridges of the Wayne National Forest, where a network of trails like the Hanging Rock Loop and Vesuvius Main Loop crisscross the terrain.
