FULL ITINERARY
The first stop on this cultural tour is
Galinyala Springs, a place of deep significance as a traditional water site and
an essential source for the Barngarla people. This location also marks the
first landing site of settlers in the region. Next, travel to Winters Hill
Lookout—known as Gannana Boori to the Barngarla people—the highest peak in Port
Lincoln / Galinyala. Emmalene will share stories, Dreamtime connections, and
insights into local landmarks from this panoramic viewpoint, illuminating the
Barngarla language and the rich cultural heritage woven into this landscape.
The journey continues to
Poonindie Aboriginal Mission ruins, a historic site that offers a glimpse into
a poignant chapter of Aboriginal history. From here, pass through Mallee Park,
home to the nation's most successful Indigenous football club and a once
previous Aboriginal Reserve connected to local stolen generation events.
The following stops include
Billy Lights Point to learn about traditional cultural fishing practises
techniques before visiting Snapper Rocks, where Emmalene will openly delve into
the darker chapters of the region's early history, sharing stories of
Indigenous resilience. This candid look into Australia's past is an important
step in understanding and supporting the healing process for Aboriginal people.
Enjoy a short stroll along the Parnkalla
Trail and embrace the knowledge shared of local traditional plants and their uses.
The trail leads to Shelly Beach, where you'll have the unique opportunity to
participate in a traditional water cleansing ceremony—a reflective experience
that fosters a deeper connection to the land and brings a profound sense of
renewal and rejuvenation.
This wonderful cultural
journey concludes with a gourmet bushfoods lunch by the beach, thoughtfully
prepared by Emmalene's family. Savour an array of hot and cold dishes featuring
native ingredients, followed by a delightful dessert and a selection of
homeland-inspired beverages—including soft drinks, wines, gin, and unique
drinks infused with bush flavours.
After lunch, unwind with a gentle 2km walk
along the coastal Parnkalla Trail, or opt for a return transfer to your
accommodation, arriving around 2 pm.
