Explore Mimosa, New South Wales, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Mimosa, 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 Mimosa, New South Wales, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

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 Mimosa.
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.

Mimosa rests under a sky that stretches wide and seems to hold its breath, a vast canvas of pale blue deepening to an almost bruised indigo at the edges. It lies 127.5 km east-south-east of Griffith, NSW (from Griffith, NSW: bearing 104°T), and is situated 16.3 km south-west of Temora. The land here is a study in muted ochre and dusty green, rolling with a gentle insistence towards horizons that blur into a soft haze. Patches of hardy, salt-tolerant scrub cling to the earth, their wiry branches catching the breeze that whispers across the plains, carrying the dry scent of sun-baked soil and the faintest hint of something wild. The air itself feels thin and clean, imbued with a quiet resilience, and at dusk, the light softens, gilding the sparse vegetation in hues of honey and pale rose, transforming the ordinary into something fleetingly beautiful.
The story of Mimosa is etched not in grand monuments, but in the quiet persistence of those who have worked this land. It is a place where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the pulse of life, where sheep graze on the sparse pastures and the economy is tethered to the fortunes of the wheat and wool markets. Generations have tended these fields, their lives intertwined with the capricious nature of the Australian climate, their history a testament to the enduring spirit of rural endeavour. While the broadacre farming is the lifeblood, the occasional weathered fence post or a rusting piece of machinery scattered across the landscape serves as a subtle reminder of past endeavours, a quiet echo of the families who shaped Mimosa into the enduring, understated place it is today.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Mimosa, New South Wales. Live weather conditions with current observations and a 7-day forecast are powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while an editorially written description provides background on Mimosa, in the Temora Shire Council local government area.

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 Mimosa is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
