What to expect
The experience splits into two parts. First, you'll sit through an audio-visual session that contextualises the land's spiritual and historical importance to the Yugambeh people. Then your guide leads a moderate walk through the headland, stopping at specific places tied to traditional practices and stories. Expect to learn how plants were used for food and medicine, why certain spots matter ceremonially, and how the ocean and creek shaped daily life. The pace suits all fitness levels, and views across the water punctuate the walking sections.
