Denbarker is a rural locality of the Shire of Plantagenet in the Great Southern region of Western Australia. Denbarker borders the Mount Roe National Park in the south-west and the Mount Lindesay National Park in the south.[1] [2]

Denbarker and the Shire of Plantagenet are located on the traditional land of the Minang people of the Noongar nation.[3] [4] [5] [6]

Like Rocky Gully and neighbouring Perillup, Denbarker was part of the soldier settlement scheme after the Second World War.[7]
