The Warren River is a river in the South West region of Western Australia with a catchment encompassing the towns of Manjimup and Pemberton.[2] The river was named by Governor James Stirling, probably after Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren under whom Stirling served whilst in action in North America in 1813.[4]
