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 Kooloonong, Victoria, 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 Kooloonong.
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.

Kooloonong rests low, a cluster of structures softened by the vast, flat sweep of the Mallee landscape that surrounds it. It lies 116.3 km south-east of Mildura, VIC (from Mildura, VIC: bearing 129°T), and is situated 44.1 km south-east of Robinvale. Here, the earth is a pale, ochreous dust that clings to everything, a fine powder that blurs the sharp edges of the world, especially in the late afternoon when the sun begins its slow descent, painting the sky in hues of apricot and bruised plum. The air, when it moves, carries the dry scent of sun-baked earth and the faintest whisper of eucalyptus, a fragrance that seems to seep from the very bones of the land. The few buildings that comprise Kooloonong are scattered, not huddled, their corrugated iron roofs glinting like scales under the immense, unblinking sky, a testament to resilience in this sparsely populated country.
The story of Kooloonong is intrinsically tied to the agricultural ambitions that have long shaped this region, a history of wheat and sheep farming etched into the very grain of the land. For generations, the Mallee scrub was gradually tamed, its stubborn resilience met with determined cultivation, and Kooloonong became a quiet hub for the surrounding properties, a place where farmers could gather, trade, and find respite from the endless toil. While the boom times of intense cultivation have softened, the spirit of self-sufficiency and quiet industry persists. The local economy, though modest, still draws strength from the land, with grazing and cropping remaining vital, and a subtle undercurrent of tourism drawn by the stark beauty of the Mallee's unique flora and fauna, a place where the silence itself can feel like a presence.

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