Wongan Hills is a town in the Shire of Wongan-Ballidu, in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

[5][6][7] In 1925, an agricultural research station was established about 5 km north of the town, which assisted in the diversification of and improvements in farm practices through the state.

[9] As part of Easter celebrations in 2009, a 1.8-by-1.1-kilometre (1.1 by 0.7 mi) cross was laid out in a bare paddock using 460 half-tonne hay bales with the aid of GPS receivers.

The cross was set alight on Good Friday night and was the end of a pilgrimage conducted on Easter Saturday.

[11] The climate is similar to Northern Hemisphere areas on the southern Mediterranean Sea, such as Tripoli or Gaza City, though Wongan Hills' inland location produces hotter, less arid summers and cooler winters than those localities.
