We acknowledge Wujal Wujal as the home of the Kuku Yalanji, Kuku Nyungul and Jalunji clans ā the ārainforest peopleā, the traditional owners and custodians of our area. Located in a World Heritage site abundant with sacred waterfalls in the Bloomfield Valley, Wujal Wujal means āmany fallsā in our local language.
Our people welcome all visitors to our area to hear our stories and learn of the history and heritage alive in our country today.
Wujal Wujal is the local Kuku-Yalanji clan name meaning āmany fallsā, highlighting the many sacred waterfalls in our landscape.
This imagery captures the multifaceted aspects of our region of rainforest covered mountain ranges, rivers and reef and speaks of our our sparkling coastline and abundant wildlife and of our many peoples and languages.
Our ancestry dates back on our traditional lands for thousands of years and our indigenous language is still spoken in the community. Our local clans are the Kuku Nyungul and Jalunji peoples and the Eastern Kuku Yalanji who have native title to the Wujal Wujal area.
