Mungalla Aboriginal Tours
Mungalla Station
A guided tour of a cattle station run by the Nywaigi traditional owners, covering land history, boomerang throwing and wetland birdwatching.
Mungalla Station lies about 12 km east of Ingham on the Ingham–Forrest Beach road. It is a historic cattle station that has been returned to the Nywaigi people. The standard cultural tour starts daily at 10:00 and lasts about 2–3 hours. It includes Nywaigi people sharing the history of colonization and the return of the land, boomerang throwing, tasting bush foods, and a walk through the wetlands being restored, where many waterbirds can be seen. Groups usually need about 10 people to run, so book in advance by phone or through the website.
