Explore Bungarby, New South Wales, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Bungarby, NSW 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 — Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets — plus a labelled MGA 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 Bungarby, New South Wales, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views.

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 Geoscience Australia National Base Map — seamless topographic mapping covering the mainland, Tasmania and the external territories. NATMAP 250K shows the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 map sheets, mosaicked nationwide — the printed sheets generations of Australians navigated the outback with. The search box finds any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Bungarby.
Reading the map like a paper sheet. Click Grid to overlay the Map Grid of Australia (MGA), 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 an MGA grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what emergency services and search and rescue 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 mobile coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load, which across much of inland Australia is most of the time.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Bungarby rests in a fold of the land, where the Australian Alps begin their dignified ascent, a place where the air, even on a warm day, carries a crispness hinting at higher country. It lies 200.7 km east-south-east of Wodonga, VIC (from Wodonga, VIC: bearing 109°T), and is situated 29.9 km north-west of Bombala. Rolling hills, cloaked in a patchwork of emerald pastures and the muted golds of sun-baked grass, fall away towards the south, their contours softened by the long shadows of late afternoon. The dominant scent is of eucalypt, a sharp, clean perfume that mingles with the fainter, sweeter smell of clover in the grazing paddocks. Here and there, stands of stringy bark and rough-barked apple gums punctuate the landscape, their branches reaching towards a sky that often holds a startling, pure blue.
The story of Bungarby is one written in wool and the enduring spirit of the land. For generations, this country has been shaped by the sheep's fleece, the local economy still largely tethered to the fortunes of the wool clip and prime lamb markets. The nearby Monaro plains, vast and windswept, have always influenced the character of settlements like Bungarby, fostering a resilience and a quiet self-reliance in its people. Old homesteads, their weatherboards bleached by sun and wind, speak of a history etched into the very grain of the district, a testament to the early settlers who carved their lives from this often unforgiving, yet beautiful, terrain. The rhythm of life here is dictated by the seasons, the needs of the livestock, and the slow, steady turning of the earth.

These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Australian city, town or locality.
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name; offers Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets as base layers; overlays a labelled Map Grid of Australia (MGA) so the map can be read like a printed topographic sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as an MGA grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from Geoscape Administrative Boundaries (GDA2020) and enriched with GeoNames and Australian Bureau of Statistics data, matched by coordinate proximity — ensuring the correct Bungarby is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
