Live for a day our happy, creative, ceremonial and spiritual life. An inspiring and educational bush walk into the dreamtime to gain a deep understanding of our traditional local Darug culture. Aboriginal owned and guided we practice the original methods of learning as we complete the ancient quest of walkabout. It is; challenge, adventure, exercise and reward for your; mind, body and spirit. The song line (story of place) leads us through secluded wild bush and rainforest to our sacred sites of the dreamtime. We listen to what nature and these wonderful sites have to share with us. A unique life changing experience.

In summer you can bathe under a paradise waterfall in a clear water billabong and sun bake on golden sand. In winter we lunch in a sunny sandstone cave and if desired by a warm crackling log fire. We enjoy ancient; art sites and artifacts, using bush medicine, bush tucker tasting, seeing wildlife and stunning scenery, ochre bark and body painting, photography and connecting with dreamtime through; story, song, dance, art and ritual. This walkabout will stimulate your senses, enrich your spirit and give you a timeless connection to our sacred land.

Venue:

Blue Mountains, NSW. We'll meet at Faulconbridge Station, and finish at Springwood (just one rail stop apart).

Tours operate 7 days a week at 10:35am weekdays and 10:45am on weekends and finish around 5:30pm. 7hrs in the bush; 3hrs of walking intertwined with 4hrs of relaxation and interpretive activities.

Guidelines:

We negotiate a medium sloped 150m deep valley. Some of this 7km bushwalk is challenging off track terrain. You must be over 12 with good health, and average fitness, balance and mobility. People over 65 should only attend if they are of good health and have bushwalking experience.

Numbers:

The price quoted is for one person, but we can accommodate much larger groups and special itineraries at discounted rates... give us a call for a group spiritual experience!

This experience takes place in all weather conditions, with a cave fire on cold or wet days perfecting the experience.
