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 Lerderderg, 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 Lerderderg.
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.

Lerderderg is a locality in the Moorabool Shire local government area of Victoria, Australia. The locality covers an area of 143.1 km². It lies approximately 58 km northwest of Melbourne. Lerderderg is located at 37.5173°S, 144.4204°E. It observes Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT). Postcode: 3458. The Australian Bureau of Statistics classifies the area as Inner Regional Australia.
Lerderderg rests in a fold of the land, where the dry grasses of the Moorabool Shire climb towards the sky, punctuated by the stoic silhouettes of gum trees. It lies 18.0 km north of Bacchus Marsh, VIC (from Bacchus Marsh, VIC: bearing 354°T), and is situated 14.0 km west of Gisborne. The air here carries the scent of warm earth and the subtle, sweet perfume of wildflowers in season, a fragrance that mingles with the ever-present whisper of the wind through the native scrub. The terrain is a study in subtle shifts, with low, rolling hills giving way to flatter expanses, all under a vast, often intensely blue, Australian sky. The light in the late afternoon can be particularly arresting, casting long, soft shadows that stretch across the paddocks and paint the weathered bark of the trees in hues of amber and ochre.
The story of Lerderderg is etched into its very landscape, a narrative shaped by the flow of water and the persistent spirit of those who sought sustenance from this country. For generations, this was a place of grazing and farming, where the land yielded its bounty to those who understood its rhythms. Remnants of earlier endeavours might be glimpsed in the occasional tumbled stone wall or the weathered timber of a forgotten shed, silent witnesses to a history of hard work and resilience. While mining once played a part in the region's past, the present economy of Lerderderg is more closely tied to the land’s enduring capacity for agriculture and the quiet charm that draws travellers seeking a connection to the Australian bush.

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