Explore Woodstock, Queensland, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Woodstock, 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 Woodstock, 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).

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 Woodstock.
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.

Woodstock rests in the fertile embrace of the Burdekin River catchment, a landscape painted in broad strokes of ochre earth and the muted greens of sugarcane fields, stretching towards the hazy blue of distant hills. It lies 41.5 km south-south-east of Kirwan, QLD (from Kirwan, QLD: bearing 155°T), and is situated 25.8 km south of Alligator Creek. Here, the air itself seems to hold a gentle warmth, a constant murmur of cicadas a soundtrack to the slow turning of the seasons. The land, a patient canvas, welcomes the determined growth of crops, its contours softened by the passage of time and the persistent caress of the Queensland sun. This is a place where the horizon feels vast, an invitation rather than a boundary, and the light at the end of the day often settles into a rich, buttery glow.
The story of Woodstock is deeply intertwined with the agricultural bounty of the Burdekin, its economy historically anchored to the sugar industry that has shaped the very contours of the land. For generations, the fertile soils have yielded this sweet harvest, a testament to the hard work and ingenuity of those who first settled here. Older buildings, their paint weathered to soft pastels, whisper of a pioneering spirit, of families who coaxed a living from this rich, alluvial soil. The rhythm of life in Woodstock is measured by the seasons of planting and harvest, a predictable cadence that offers a quiet certainty, a grounding presence in a world that often rushes too fast.

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