Guided by an Indigenous expert, explore culturally significant sites, learn about traditional plant uses, bush food, and ochre painting, and hear stories of the deep connection between the rainforest and its people. Along the way, visit traditional huts (humpies) and witness bush soap-making demonstrations.
