Winter Hill Lookout

The first stop on this cultural tour is Galinyala Springs, a place of deep significance as a traditional water site and an essential source for the Barngarla 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—the highest peak in Port Lincoln / 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 Mallee 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 practises techniques before visiting 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.
