On this Port Lincoln/Galinyala Cultural Tour, Untamed Escapes is proud to partner with Maba Idi Cultural Tours to offer a unique day tour exploring the rich Aboriginal heritage of South Australia's Eyre peninsula. Join proud Barngarla woman Emmalene Richards as she shares her knowledge, stories, and deep connection to the land and cultural sites around Port Lincoln / Galinyala. Discover Bargarla traditions, from traditional fishing techniques to the cultural practices passed down from generation to generation. Experience the flavours of a regional bushfood lunch prepared by Emmalene and her family. This intimate tour offers a rare opportunity to see the owrld through a local Barngarla's family's eyes and gain insight into their enduring care for Country. The first stop on this Port Lincoln Aboriginal cultural tour is Galinyala Springs, a place of deep significance as a traditional water site and an essential source for the Barngala 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. It's the highest peak in Port Linclon / 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 Malle 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 practices techniques. Then visit 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 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 Parnkall Trail, or opt for a return transfer to your accommodation, arriving around 2pm.
