Denmark is a coastal town located on the Wilson Inlet in the Great Southern region of Western Australia, 423km south-east of Perth.
Denmark, situated on the southwest coast of Western Australia along the Rainbow Coast, is a picturesque town that boasts natural beauty and a mild climate throughout the year.
Established in 1895 during a period of high demand for timber due to global needs and nearby gold rushes, Denmark has evolved into a tranquil town where the local economy thrives on tourism, dairy and cattle farming, fishing, and the arts.
The charming town features award-winning bakeries, diverse cafes, and vibrant arts markets, attracting visitors with its lively atmosphere. However, the real allure lies in the surrounding natural wonders. Greens Pool and Elephant Rocks in William Bay National Park are breathtaking attractions, with the ocean’s vivid colours changing under the play of light. The eroded rocks at Greens Pool resemble a miniature archipelago, creating a stunning seascape.
Denmark’s landscape is adorned with towering trees, some reaching 60 meters in height and dating back around 400 years. These ancient trees line the roads and form dense native forests, providing a magical experience at the Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk, a 40-minute drive from the town.
The region is also home to family-owned wineries, accessible through scenic drives like Mount Shadforth Scenic Drive and Scotsdale Scenic Drive. The Great Southern wine region, known for its cool climate riesling and cabernet sauvignon, adds to the area’s allure. Additionally, distant views of the purple Stirling Ranges and the unique shapes of the Porongurup granite domes provide additional reasons to explore Denmark’s natural wonders up close.
Families have some great schools to choose from, including Denmark Primary School, Denmark Senior High School, Kwoorabup Nature School, Western Australian College of Agriculture – Denmark, and Golden Hill Steiner School.
The average population of Denmark sits around 2,637, and the average land price is currently $250,000 *
