About This Tour
Departing from Cairns at 8am, the journey will take a little over an hour before reaching the 500yr old Cathedral Fig Tree, located in the heart of Yidinji Country. You will view a cultural presentation followed by a short 100m walk to view the fig tree, where your guide explains the cultural significance of the area and the fig itself. We then travel to Lake Barrine where we take a 150m walk to view two ancient Kauri Pines and learn the creation story of the crater lakes. Our 3rd stop is Hastie’s Swamp bird-hide, where you will get the chance to view many species of aquatic bird life, as well as learn about the cultural significance of the Swamp. Our last stop is the Watsonville Culture Park. Here you will enjoy a picnic lunch before taking a 300m walk in the nearby bushland to view the many types of plants and trees used in traditional bushcraft, foods, and medicines. We finish off our adventure with some spear throwing before returning you back to Cairns.
