This magical, award-winning and thought-provoking tour is in the company of Nugal-warra Elder, Willie Gordon. Willie takes guests to visit his ancestral rock art sites, set in stunning countryside high in the hills outside Cooktown and normally inaccessible to the public.

Activity Highlights:

  • Walk with Nugal-warra story-keeper, Willie Gordon, on his country and visit six rock art sites, including an ancestral Birth Cave where Willie’s father & grandfather were born.
  • Learn the meanings and philosophies behind the paintings & their relevance today.
  • Gain an amazing insight into Aboriginal society and spirituality.
  • See the land through Willie’s eyes as he shares his vast knowledge of the bush. It’s a great tour for youngsters too, as there’s plenty of hands-on things for them to do.
  • Gain an understanding of how we all gain inner strength from the land, wherever we come from.
  • This is a very relaxed, interactive, thought-provoking tour – and Willie loves questions!
