Continuing the legacy of our ancestors

Cultural tours in Ngaut Ngaut would not be possible without the decades of advocacy of the late Richard Hunter, a respected Ngarrindjeri elder, cultural educator, and visionary. Uncle Richard dedicated his life to protecting Country and perpetuating the culture and stories of our Nganguraku ancestors. We honour his legacy by continuing to share the stories of our people and care for the land.

“It is a place intimately tied to our Dreaming, a place where the ‘old people’ lived and a place that preserves the environment. It is also a place that demonstrates our ongoing connection to our country and provides us with a sense of belonging.”
