Overview
Lake Mummuga Wellness Walk is a 2 kilometre looped walk in Bodalla State Forest, skirting the shores of nearby Lake Mummuga. This historical walking track has received an upgrade, with signage 'stations' along the way featuring activities to help you leave stress behind and press pause on the mental chatter. Each activity invites visitors to relax, take in the surrounding forest and connect to Country. QR codes on signage provide online access to spoken words by local First Nations Elders and representatives Uncle Cecil, Uncle Paul Mongta, and Alinta Mongta, informing visitors about this special cultural place.
Exposure to forest environment and sounds has proven health benefits such as lowering blood pressure and improving overall wellbeing. The Lake Mummuga Wellness Walk guides visitors through places to rest, reflect and listen to birdsong via serenity seats, a boardwalk and (coming soon!) a dedicated listening pod.
Developed in partnership with Naturefix and Bodalla Local Aboriginal Land Council, visitors can experience the Lake Muumuga Wellness Walk for free in Bodalla State Forest.
Access is via Bodalla Forest Rest Area, just off the Princes Highway near Bodalla.
