Wiradjuri Wonders - Aboriginal Discovery Tour
Experience Aboriginal culture and gain insights into how Aboriginal people used the land to survive, their traditional practices, the bush tucker they ate, bush tools they used and their spiritual beliefs from the Dreaming.
The Tumut River in the Snowy Mountains region of New South Wales was the meeting place for Aboriginal tribes including the Wiradjuri, Ngungawal and Wolgalu. They met for trade, ceremony and to follow traditional pathways used for travelling to and from the mountains to the coast.
Discover why Aboriginal people?s movements were governed by the landscape and the seasonal changes that affected food and shelter resources.
This is a hands on experience that takes you into the Northern Kosciuszko National Park and offers unique opportunities to see ancient Australian landscapes, taste traditional Aboriginal foods, make your own bush rope and traditional jewellery, and touch the textures of the past.
