Munson’s Hill is located at 38°51′35″N 77°08′44″W / 38.85983°N 77.14554°WCoordinates: 38°51′35″N 77°08′44″W / 38.85983°N 77.14554°W.
The hill is adjacent to Upton’s Hill (410 ft) on its north. It is located at an area called Seven Corners, where Leesburg Pike, U.S. Route 50, Sleepy Hollow Road, and Wilson Boulevard intersect. Until recent decades the area of heights where the roads intersect was called Perkins’ Hill and was considered a geographically distinct hill by local residents. Geographers, however, appear to consider the two as one.
The junction of the Potomac River with the Anacostia River occurs in a natural depression. The lower portion of Washington, D.C. and its Monumental Core thus are located in a naturally occurring "bowl" circled by hills and bluffs on every side. Munson's Hill is a part of this encircling chain, along with Mason's Hill to its immediate southeast and Upton's and Minor's hills to its northwest.
