In the spirit of reconciliation, Tableland Trails acknowledges the Yirrganydji, Djabugay, and Tablelands Yidinji Peoples, the Traditional Custodians of the lands and waters on which we explore. We pay our deepest respects to Elders past and present and recognise their enduring connection to Country — a connection that continues to guide and nurture this remarkable region. We are grateful to share the beauty of tropical rainforests, waterfalls, and wildlife, and we celebrate the living culture and stories that make Far North Queensland so unique.
