The Division of Canobolas was an Australian Electoral Division in New South Wales. The division was created in 1901, and was one of the original 75 divisions to be contested at the first federal election. It was abolished in 1906, when it was renamed Calare. It was named for Mt Canobolas (an Aboriginal word meaning "two peaks"). It was located in western New South Wales, including the towns of Forbes, Orange and Parkes. It was held by the Australian Labor Party throughout its existence.
