Burringurrah Community, Indigenous Australian community in the Gascoyne region, Western Australia

Burringurrah Community is an Indigenous settlement in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia. The community occupies a vast area of land with pastoral landscape and natural features in a remote part of the state.

The community's reserve of 45,000 hectares was excised from the Mount James pastoral lease. Its incorporated body, Burringurrah Community (Aboriginal Corporation), was registered on 9 September 1987 under the Aboriginal Councils and Associations Act 1976. Layout Plan No.2 was endorsed by the community on 16 February 1999 and by the Western Australian Planning Commission on 21 October 2003. Seasonal flooding in 2011 cut the community off for weeks, and basic services were only fully restored in early 2012.

The settlement operates within the Wajarri Yamatji native title claim area, maintaining traditional connections to the land through Indigenous ranger programs.

Access to this community is restricted and requires prior authorization from the relevant authorities. Visitors should inquire beforehand and be aware that only authorized persons can enter.

Burringurrah is the Aboriginal name for the inselberg 70 km to the north, also called Mount Augustus, the largest monolith in the world. The community reserve covers 450 km², excised from Mount James Station. The community store closed in 2011 after floods isolated the settlement; residents drove ten hours to Carnarvon for groceries until it reopened in 2025.
