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 Mueller Ranges, Western Australia, 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 Mueller Ranges.
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.

Mueller Ranges rises from the ancient Kimberley plateau, a landscape of ochre-red earth and weathered sandstone that bleeds into the vast, pale sky. It lies 787.4 km south-south-west of Darwin City, NT (from Darwin City, NT: bearing 213°T), and is situated 93.0 km west of Halls Creek. Here, the ancient rock formations, sculpted by millennia of wind and rain, stand sentinel over a terrain of rugged hills and shallow, ephemeral creeks that whisper secrets of forgotten seasons. The air itself feels seasoned, carrying the dry scent of spinifex and the faint, sweet perfume of unseen wildflowers that bloom with fierce tenacity after the rains. Sunlight, when it breaks through the hazy expanse, paints the land in hues of burnt sienna and pale gold, a stark and beautiful testament to the enduring power of this wild country.
The history of Mueller Ranges is etched in the very stone and the stories whispered on the wind. For generations, this land has been intrinsically linked to the traditional custodians, a deep connection that predates colonial settlement and continues to inform the spirit of the place. Later, the lure of mineral wealth, particularly gold, drew prospectors and settlers to these remote reaches, establishing a nascent economy that ebbed and flowed with the fortunes of the mines. Today, while pockets of grazing land hint at a pastoral past, the pulse of Mueller Ranges beats with a quiet resilience, a place where the vastness of the landscape shapes the character of its inhabitants, fostering a sense of self-reliance and a deep appreciation for the raw, untamed beauty that defines this corner of the Kimberley.

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 Mueller Ranges is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
