Explore St George Ranges, Western Australia, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the St George Ranges, WA map and move it around to re-centre it. 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 St George 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 St George 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.

St George Ranges rise from the ancient Kimberley earth like a slumbering titan, their weathered escarpments a testament to millennia of wind and rain. It lies 940.9 km south-west of Darwin City, NT (from Darwin City, NT: bearing 221°T), and is situated 88.9 km south-west of Fitzroy Crossing. The landscape here is a study in ochre and rust, where spinifex carpets the slopes in a tough, resilient mat, punctuated by the stark, skeletal forms of ghost gums. Sun-bleached boulders, rounded by the relentless passage of time, lie scattered across the terrain, catching the fierce northern light and casting sharp, dancing shadows. The air itself carries a dry, mineral tang, a scent of sun-baked rock and hardy vegetation, and in the late afternoon, the distant ridges glow with an ethereal, almost violet hue, as if absorbing the last vestiges of the day's heat.
These ranges hold echoes of a deep past, a country trod by Indigenous peoples for countless generations before European explorers charted these rugged shores. While no major towns are directly at its heart, the surrounding Shire of Derby-West Kimberley has long been shaped by the pastoral industry, with cattle stations sprawling across vast tracts of land, their fortunes tied to the unpredictable seasons. The economy here is a hardy blend, relying on the strength of the land and the resilience of its people, where the shimmer of heat haze on the horizon often signals not just distance, but the enduring spirit of the region. The St George Ranges, though seemingly wild and untamed, are a vital part of this country's story, a silent witness to its unfolding human and natural history.

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