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 Llowalong, 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 Llowalong.
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.

Llowalong rests on the edge of rolling country, where the land begins its gentle descent towards the coast. It lies 56.3 km north-east of Traralgon, VIC (from Traralgon, VIC: bearing 54°T), and is situated 7.4 km north-north-east of Maffra. The paddocks here are a patchwork of greens and golds, stitched together by the darker lines of fence posts and the silvery shimmer of scattered gums. A fine dust, the colour of pale honey, often hangs in the air, catching the late afternoon sun and giving everything a softened, almost dreamlike hue. The air itself carries a subtle dampness, a promise of the nearby sea, mingling with the dry scent of eucalyptus and sun-baked earth. The character of Llowalong is one of quiet resilience, a place that has weathered its share of seasons and still stands with a sturdy, unpretentious grace.
The history of Llowalong is tied to the rich pastures that have sustained its agricultural heart for generations. Sheep and cattle have long been the lifeblood of this district, their steady presence a constant in the landscape. The railway line, now a ghost of its former self, once hummed with the transport of wool and grain, a vital artery connecting this inland settlement to the wider world. Today, while farming remains central, a subtle shift is occurring, with small vineyards beginning to dot the surrounding hills, their vines reaching for the sun, a new chapter in Llowalong’s story of sustenance. The local primary school, a solid brick building that has seen countless children pass through its doors, stands as a quiet testament to the enduring community spirit of Llowalong.

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