About our Experiences
wawa biik Taungurung Cultural Experiences are about generating greater respect for the Taungurung story – a resilient story that spans thousands of years. Our experiences inspire deeper connections, learnings, and reflections, that will inspire us all to care more about the future of our Culture and biik (Country).
Meet passionate Taungurung guides who share traditional and contemporary cultural practices. Understand life of our Ancestors and learn what being a Custodian of biik means for us today as we walk through important areas of biik together.
We celebrate the small moments of connection with and on biik.
We will also yarn with you about all the work we do on biik as a mob to keep biik and Culture strong for the next generation – this includes protecting cultural heritage, regeneration works and cultural practice. We will introduce you to wawa biik’s partners, who are as determined as we are to care for biik and contribute to our positive future.
