Six Season Walks 2024 - Djilba

25 August 2024 : 9:45 AM - 25 August 2024 : 12:30 PM

The City of Kalamunda has partnered with Perth NRM to host the first walk in a series of Six Season walks across six local governments, from the hills to the coast. These walks explore the yearly cycle of travel and resource collection by the Noongar people.

Join us at Lesmurdie Falls to learn about traditional ecological knowledge and how native plants and animals were used during the season of Djilba with Uncle Neville Collard.

On this community walk, we will be in the season of Djilba, a time of transition with some rainy, windy days, occasional sunny days, and cold, crisp mornings. Look out for the first flush of wildflowers and listen for the sound of chicks calling out to be fed. The event will include a Welcome to Country and incorporate information and moments for sharing as we explore the bushland of Kalamunda and learn from Uncle Neville Collard about the importance of the area's flora and fauna.

The walk will take approximately two hours and include stops along the way. Walkers should bring a water bottle, a hat, and wear suitable shoes for walking. Please note that these events are fluid, and each walk is slightly different depending on the weather, the flora and fauna we may see, and the questions asked. Please join us for a cuppa and a yarn afterward.
