Explore Park Ridge, Queensland, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Park Ridge, QLD 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 Park Ridge, Queensland, 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 Queensland or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Park Ridge 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 Park Ridge.
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.

Park Ridge hums with a quiet energy, a place where the sun-drenched afternoons often bleed into a hazy, golden twilight. It lies 13.7 km south-east of Forest Lake, QLD (from Forest Lake, QLD: bearing 133°T), and is situated 12.3 km south of Sunnybank Hills. The land here, a gentle swell of ochre-tinted earth, rises and falls without dramatic flourish, crisscrossed by the faint tracks of vehicles and the occasional winding bitumen road. Scattered eucalyptus trees, their bark peeling in papery strips, offer sparse but welcome shade, and the air, particularly after a summer rain, carries the clean, sharp scent of damp soil and eucalypt leaf. Distant suburban sprawl hums just beyond the horizon, a constant reminder of the growing city, yet Park Ridge itself maintains a distinct character, a feeling of being on the cusp of something, a place where the wild edges of the country still brush against the cultivated.
Historically, Park Ridge has been shaped by the aspirations of those who sought a life closer to the land, its early development intertwined with the agricultural pursuits of the region. While not a major hub, its economy has always been one of steady, practical enterprise, with a strong reliance on small farms and grazing properties that once dominated the landscape. Though much of that has given way to residential growth, the echoes remain in the names of streets and the enduring connection many residents feel to the soil. The area’s proximity to larger centres has also influenced its character, making it a convenient place for families to put down roots, drawn by the promise of space and a slightly slower pace of life, a subtle allure that continues to draw new inhabitants to its sun-drenched, gently rolling terrain.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Park Ridge, Queensland. 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 Park Ridge, in the Logan City local government area.
Detailed location data for Park Ridge includes the postcode (4125), telephone area code (07), and local government area (Logan City), 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 Park Ridge is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
