Barna is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located on the Eyre Peninsula about north-west of the state capital of Adelaide and about east of the municipal seat in Kimba.[3] [1]

Barna's boundaries were created on 6 May 1999 for the "local established name" which is derived from the cadastral unit of the Hundred of Barna.[2] [1] The boundaries of both the locality and the hundred align with exception to some land on the locality's southern boundary.[1] The Middleback Road, an unsealed road, passes through the locality from the Lincoln Highway in the east to Kimba in the west.[7] Land use within the locality is "primary production".[8] [9]

Barna is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Giles and the local government area of the District Council of Kimba.[5] [1] [4]
