Wujal Wujal Aboriginal Shire

Wujal Wujal, meaning 'many falls' in the local Kuku Yalanji language, is a vibrant Aboriginal community nestled in the Bloomfield Valley of Far North Queensland. Surrounded by lush rainforests and the Bloomfield River, the area is renowned for its sacred waterfalls and rich cultural heritage. The community offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience traditional Eastern Kuku Yalanji knowledge, language, and connection to the land. Local attractions include the Bloomfield Falls, accessible via the scenic Bloomfield Track, and the Indigenous Knowledge Centre, Binal Mangka Bayan, which provides insights into the area's history and culture. Visitors are encouraged to arrange a Welcome to Country ceremony with the Wujal Wujal Aboriginal Shire Council to fully appreciate the community's traditions and stories.
