Maragle is a rural locality in the southeast part of the Riverina, situated approximately 22 kilometres (14 mi) west of Cabramurra as the crow flies, or 50 kilometres (31 mi) by road.

[2] State forest (chiefly Eucalyptus delegatensis and pinus radiata) as well as semi-cleared, undulating grazing land characterise the area.

Although high summer to mid autumn is relatively dry, springs are characterised by frequent and severe thunderstorms.

Sleet and graupel are very common occurrences throughout the year (at times even in early summer) and snow often falls heavily in the winter and spring months.

Climate data are sourced from an altitude of 981 metres (3,219 ft) at Hunters Hill across the border into Victoria, operating since 1993.
