On Country Tour with Yabbie Lunch

Join Grant and Anne Riley on an experience at Lake Dumbleyung in the Golden Outback region of Western Australia to learn about the Aboriginal history and the significance of this water body. Lake Dumbleyung was once a significant food and water source for the Wilman people of the region, attracting birdlife, wildlife, fish and yabbies. Now a saltwater lake due to land clearing, the lake is no less spectacular when full, attracting black swans and a multitude of birdlife. As you will discover on this tour, the spiritual and cultural connections that the region’s first people share with this place are still very much alive.

Visit an emu farm and see these majestic birds up close, learn about how emu oil is used today in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Another important food source to the Wilman people was the ‘Djilgi’ (yabbie). Enjoy a tour of the yabbie farm before being treated to a gourmet yabbie lunch.
