The needle on a compass is always pointing to what pole?
The north pole.

A needle on a compass always point to what pole?
The North Pole.Another AnswerA compass needle points to the location called 'Magnetic North', named to distinguish it from 'True North'. Magnetic North is several hundred miles away from True North.

The Earth's magnetic field causes a compass needle to align with the magnetic North Pole, which is located near the geographic North Pole. This makes the compass point to the north direction consistently.
What does the painted point of a compass always always point North?
The painted end of the compass needle is magnetized. That magnetism is drawn toward the earth's magnetic field, which is to the north.AnswerA compass needle is a tiny magnet, with a north pole and a south pole. These poles are named after the direction in which they point, so the 'painted end' (north) of a compass needle points north because the needle aligns itself with the earth's magnetic field. Magnetic North is the name given to a location, close to True North, whose magnetic polarity is south -which is whyit attracts the north pole of the compass needle.
How can you tell which is the North Pole on a magnet if it is not marked?
A magnet's north pole will attract the south pole of a compass needle (i.e. the end of the needle that points to Magnetic South).
