Warnung is a locality in the South Burnett Region, Queensland, Australia.[1]

History

The locality's name came from the railway station name, assigned by the Queensland Railways Department on 18 March 1924. It is an Aboriginal word referring to a species of Eucalyptus known as box trees.[1]

The Warnung railway station was on the Windera railway line, now closed.
