The Walkers and Wujal Wujal Falls

The Walker Family are members of the Kuku Yalanji, the indigenous inhabitants of the land that have a history dating back 50,000 years to the earliest human occupation of Australia. They have an authentic connection to nature, living in complete harmony with the environment. It is apart of them, and they are apart of it. Their traditional country extends from south of Mossman to Cooktown in the North, and Palmer River in the West. The Walkers have a deep respect for nature and an intimate knowledge of its cycles, and this sacred knowledge has been passed down from generation to generation. Their stunning lands are apart of the World Heritage Rainforest area, and encompass Bloomfield Falls, after which Wujal Wujal township is named.
