Journey back in time travelling by river boat from the Cairns Marina to discover a cultural landscape through the eyes of the Mandingalbay Yidinji people, the traditional owners of the country that lies just across waters from the city.
Imagine gliding across Trinity Inlet past tethered yachts leaving the city of Cairns behind, and enter a stunning mangrove forest and wetlands eco-system. Your Mandingalbay Yidinji tour guide is a traditional owner of the land, and will introduce you to a cultural landscape, bringing to life stories of creation, central to a reclamation of both country and culture that has been going on for the last two decades.
In the distance, rainforest clad mountains soar – today’s destination. Turn up Hills Creek, where salty sea and mountain freshwaters meet, arriving to a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony.
