Bonnie Rock is a small town in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

The town was once the terminus of the railway to Beacon.

The name of the town originated from a rock formation that is situated close to the town that was named by a sandalwood cutter. The townsite was gazetted in 1932. [LandInfo WA|c|B|2008-10-02]
