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 Pigeon Ponds, 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 Pigeon Ponds.
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.

Pigeon Ponds lies like a quiet breath exhaled onto the plains, a landscape etched with the subtle artistry of wind and water. It lies 98.6 km north-east of Mount Gambier, SA (from Mount Gambier, SA: bearing 52°T), and is situated 34.7 km north of Coleraine. Rolling country, a tapestry of ochre earth and emerald pasture, stretches towards a horizon that seems to hold the very essence of Australian light. Here, the sky is a vast, unblemished canvas, shifting through a spectrum of blues and greys, often softened by a haze that lends a dreamlike quality to the distant hills. The air itself carries a clean, dry scent, a mixture of sun-baked earth and the faint, sweet perfume of eucalyptus, a constant reminder of the ancient land that cradles Pigeon Ponds. The terrain is gentle, a series of low rises and shallow valleys, punctuated by the occasional cluster of hardy wattles or the stoic silhouette of a lone gum tree, standing sentinel against the immensity of the sky.
The history of Pigeon Ponds is intrinsically tied to the pastoral ambitions of early settlers, who saw in these fertile plains a promise of prosperity. Sheep stations, established in the wake of exploration, began to shape the character of the region, their wool becoming a vital thread in the burgeoning Australian economy. While the grand homesteads of yesteryear may have faded, their spirit persists in the enduring rhythm of grazing and the quiet diligence of those who work the land. The local economy, though modest, is anchored by this deep connection to the soil, a reliance on the predictable cycles of the seasons and the hardy resilience of its inhabitants. Pigeon Ponds, in its unhurried way, continues to be a place where the land dictates the pace, and where the echoes of history are carried on the same breezes that rustle through the dry grasses.

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 Pigeon Ponds is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
