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 Moorngag, 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 Moorngag.
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.

Moorngag rests in the embrace of rolling farmland, a landscape where broad, sun-bleached paddocks stretch towards a horizon softened by the haze of distance. It lies 47.2 km south-south-west of Wangaratta, VIC (from Wangaratta, VIC: bearing 209°T), and is situated 19.3 km south-south-east of Benalla. The earth here is a rich, ochreous clay, firm underfoot after rain and prone to a fine, powdery dust in the dry spells, a constant reminder of the land's generous but demanding nature. Scattered stands of native gum trees, their bark peeling in papery strips, offer sparse shade, their leaves rustling with a dry whisper in the prevailing breezes that carry the scent of dry grass and distant stock. The sky above Moorngag is often a vast, uninterrupted dome of brilliant blue, punctuated by the slow drift of white, fluffy clouds that seem to move with a languid, unhurried grace, painting fleeting shadows across the undulating terrain.
The economic pulse of Moorngag has long been tied to the bounty of its soil, primarily through sheep grazing and cereal cropping, a legacy etched into the weathered timber of old shearing sheds and the broad, straight furrows that mark the fields. For generations, the land has yielded its harvest, a cycle of planting and reaping that has shaped the character of the place, fostering a quiet resilience in its inhabitants. The local store, a hub of comings and goings, serves as more than just a place for provisions; it’s a repository of local lore, a place where the day’s news is exchanged over the counter, and the subtle hum of rural life continues, largely unseen by the wider world.

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