There are claims that Kokerbin Rock is the third largest monolith in Australia, with Mount Wudinna in South Australia being the second largest and Uluru in the Northern Territory being the largest.
Kokerbin Nature Reserve was established in 1991, and has an area of 91 hectares (220 acres). It is approximately 40 km (25 mi) east of Quairading and 30 km (19 mi) south of Kellerberrin by road.
