Kokerbin Rock

Inselbergs and Crystalline Monoliths

Kokerbin Rock is a granite monolith in the Western Australian wheatbelt, within Kokerbin Nature Reserve about forty kilometers east of Quairading, generally reckoned the third largest monolith in Australia behind Uluru and Mount Wudinna. It rises about 122 meters above the surrounding farmland, and its granite dome carries a range of named features along walking trails, including a wave-like rock formation similar in shape to the better known Wave Rock, a formation called Dog Rock, and a cluster of boulders known locally as the Devil's Marbles. The reserve, gazetted in 1991, also preserves the remains of an early European settler's stone well.
