Cundinup is a rural locality of the Shire of Nannup in the South West region of Western Australia. A small section in the far east of the locality is located in the Shire of Donnybrook–Balingup. The western boundary of the locality is formed by the Vasse Highway while, in the east, the border runs along the Blackwood River in places. Much of the locality is covered by state forest.[2][3]
Cundinup and the Shire of Nannup are located on the traditional land of the Bibulman and Wardandi people of the Noongar nation.[4][5][6] The suffix -up is commonly found in place names in south-western Western Australia and is of Noongar origin, meaning "place of".[7]
