Walk into the past

One of the most significant walks in Eurobodalla is the Bingi Dreaming track, south of Moruya. This 13.5km coastal track follows an ancient Songline of the Brinja-Yuin people (a track that links places used by Aboriginal people for trade, camping and ceremonies). Start at either Congo or Tuross Head and keep an eye out for stone artefacts and traces of shell middens.

Mount Gulaga is an extinct volcano of sacred significance to the local Yuin Aboriginal people. Depart from La Galette restaurant in Tilba Tilba and follow old goldmining access roads through rainforest to the summit for amazing views. Take a guided walk led by the Yuin people to immerse yourself in the true spirit of the land.
