Take a journey with a Gunditjmara cultural guide through 'Tungatt Mirring' or 'Stone Country,' and learn about the creation of the historic Budj Bim Cultural Landscape from ancient times through to the present day.
Your tour will start with a visit to the Kurtonitj Indigenous Protected Area (IPA), which is located at the very heart of the landscape. Here you'll see ancient kooyang (eel) traps and stone channels, remnants of stone house sites and kooyang smoking trees.
You'll then head over to Budj Bim National Park for morning tea, before exploring the Budj Bim volcanic crater, now called 'Lake Surprise', where the legend of Budj Bim began. Enjoy a guided bush walk and see lava tunnels, caves, wildlife and the surrounding forest.
