Explore Round Mountain, New South Wales, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Round Mountain, 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 Round Mountain, 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).
Drag the map to pan to any area of New South Wales or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Round Mountain and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
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 Round Mountain.
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.

Round Mountain rises, a rounded shoulder of ancient earth, against the sweeping sky. It lies 35.1 km south-south-east of Robina, QLD (from Robina, QLD: bearing 155°T), and is situated 14.6 km south of Banora Point. The land here, a mosaic of emerald pastures and darker, brooding forest, folds and tumbles towards unseen valleys, the air carrying the faint, sweet scent of damp soil and flowering lantana. Sunlight, when it breaks through the often-present haze, washes the slopes in a buttery glow, highlighting the tenacious scrub clinging to the steeper inclines. It’s a landscape that feels both ancient and alive, where the wind whispers through the tall grasses and the distant calls of unseen birds punctuate the quiet.
The history of Round Mountain is tied to the rich volcanic soils that have long supported agriculture, particularly dairy farming and, more recently, a burgeoning interest in macadamia cultivation. Generations of families have worked this land, their lives shaped by the seasons and the gentle, yet insistent, demands of the earth. Evidence of earlier times can be glimpsed in the weathered fences and the occasional stand of old-growth trees, remnants of a wilder past. The local economy, while still rooted in primary production, has begun to diversify, with small-scale producers and artisans finding their niche, drawn to the fertile ground and the appealing, unhurried pace of life that defines Round Mountain.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Round Mountain, 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 Round Mountain, in the Tweed Shire Council local government area.
Detailed location data for Round Mountain includes the postcode (2484), telephone area code (02), and local government area (Tweed Shire Council), with an ABS remoteness classification of Major Cities of Australia. 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 Round Mountain is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
