What stays with many visitors is not simply what they learned during their visit. It's what they felt.

There is a sense of peace on Country. A quiet calm that settles in as you move through the landscape. The feeling of connection between people, place, water and culture that has endured for thousands of years.

As you walk across this ancient landscape, you begin to understand that Budj Bim is not only a place of remarkable ingenuity and innovation. It is a place of belonging. A place where the knowledge and practices of Gunditjmara people remain deeply connected to Country.

The 6,600-year-old aquaculture system is extraordinary. The history held within the lava flows, waterways and wetlands is equally powerful.

Some experiences stay with you long after you leave.

Budj Bim is one of those places.
