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.

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 Dixons Creek.
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.

It lies 23.7 km north-north-east of Mooroolbark, VIC (from Mooroolbark, VIC: bearing 23°T), and is situated 14.5 km north-west of Healesville. The air here, particularly in the late afternoon, carries a subtle, earthy perfume of sun-warmed soil and the resinous tang of eucalypts, a scent that seems to deepen as the light begins to soften. Broad-leafed trees, their branches reaching out like weathered arms, cast long, lazy shadows across the winding roads that connect the scattered homesteads and agricultural holdings, creating a sense of quiet seclusion. The terrain itself is a gentle rise and fall, not dramatic, but possessing a persistent, grounding quality that speaks of enduring natural forces.
The story of Dixons Creek is deeply entwined with the fertile lands it traverses, a narrative of agricultural endeavour that began with early selectors drawn to the rich soil. For generations, this locality has been a cornerstone of the region's burgeoning wine industry, with many a vineyard owner tending vines that have weathered their own histories. The economy here is largely shaped by the fruit of the vine, with cellar doors dotting the landscape, inviting travellers to sample the fruits of local labour and passion. Beyond the vineyards, pockets of grazing land hint at a broader agricultural past, and the quiet hum of activity from small businesses and farms forms the steady pulse of life in Dixons Creek.

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 Dixons Creek is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
