Booja Biddi - Community Walk

Join us for a guided walk through Piney Lakes Reserve with Milliyaan Aboriginal Services, as we explore the natural environment, animals, plants and long history of this area. Rug up and bring an umbrella as this walk is being held at the start of Makuru, our cold and wet season, and will likely go ahead even in wet weather.
