North Walpole is a rural locality of the Shire of Manjimup in the South West region of Western Australia. The South Western Highway forms the western and southern border of the locality while the Frankland River forms its eastern boundary. North Walpole contains all of Mount Frankland North National Park and a substantial part of both the Mount Frankland National Park and Mount Frankland South National Park. A small section of the Lake Muir National Park is also located within the north of North Walpole, a section of the Walpole-Nornalup National Park is located within the south-west, and a section of the Mount Roe National Park in the north-east of the locality.[1] [2]

The Shire of Manjimup is located on the traditional land of the Bibulman and Mineng people of the Noongar nation. The Mineng's traditional lands are in the far east of the shire, where North Walpole is also located, while the Bibulman's traditional lands are in the remainder of the shire.[3] [4] [5]
