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 Gayndah, Queensland, 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 Gayndah.
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.

Gayndah rests in a broad, sun-drenched valley where the Burnett River carves its patient way. It lies 106.6 km west of Maryborough, QLD (from Maryborough, QLD: bearing 264°T), and is situated 33.7 km east of Mundubbera. The land here is a gentle slope of ochre earth, softened by swathes of emerald pastures and the paler green of citrus orchards, stretching towards a horizon that often blurs into a hazy, golden light. The air, especially as the afternoon wanes, carries a dry, warm scent, a mixture of dust, ripening fruit, and the subtle perfume of eucalyptus from the neighbouring hills. The character of Gayndah is one of quiet resilience, a place where the land dictates the pace, and the sky, a vast, ever-changing canvas, presides over the daily unfolding.
The story of Gayndah is deeply entwined with the Burnett River, a lifeline established by early settlers who saw the potential for agriculture in its fertile floodplains. It was a place that grew on the back of grazing properties and the burgeoning citrus industry, the sweet, sharp tang of oranges a signature scent during harvest. The town’s history is etched not in grand monuments, but in the weathered timber of its older buildings and the enduring spirit of its people, who have learned to adapt to the rhythms of drought and flood. Today, the local economy still leans heavily on the cultivation of citrus, particularly mandarins and navels, their vibrant colour a cheerful contrast against the muted tones of the landscape, alongside cattle grazing on the surrounding country. The annual Gayndah Orange Festival, a celebration of its primary produce, is a notable event, drawing visitors and showcasing the unique identity of this riverland hub.

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