Yorkrakine is a small town in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia; it is part of the Shire of Tammin, 203 kilometres (126 mi) east of the state capital, Perth.

[1] The locality was once home to a school and general store but declining population and improved transport links have seen them both close.

The base of the rock is good habitat for flora and fauna and is surrounded by York gum and jam woodlands.

The area was first settled in 1908 as part of a farm settlement scheme instigated by the Minister for Lands and Agriculture, James Mitchell.

[7] A biological survey of the area was conducted in the 1970s[8] Media related to Yorkrakine, Western Australia at Wikimedia Commons
