Chapter 49: Icons Map
Map Icons The table below shows the Free Font Awesome 5 Map icons:” followed by the standard table: icon preview, class name, unicode value, “Try it” button.
1. What is the “Icons Map” Page?
This page collects only the icons that represent maps, locations, pins, directions, navigation, compass, globe, markers, routes, and geography-related symbols.
These icons are extremely useful for:
- Google Maps / location embeds
- “Find Us” / contact pages with address
- Delivery / tracking apps (show current location)
- Real estate / property listing maps
- Travel / tourism websites (directions, landmarks)
- Event venue maps
- Ride-sharing / taxi apps
- Store locator / branch finder
- “Get Directions” buttons
In Font Awesome 5 free, the Map category is medium-sized and very practical (around 20β30 icons, mostly solid fas style, some regular far). Newer versions (FA6/7) added many more (location-dot, map-location, compass-drafting, route-highway, signs-post), but FA5 free already has the most commonly used map & location symbols that are still powering almost every business “Find Us” page, delivery app, and real estate listing in 2026.
