Gulaga National Park
Gulaga (Mt Dromedary) and the surrounding landscape have great spiritual significance to local Aboriginal people, particularly Aboriginal women. The park also incorporates the former Wallaga Lake National Park. In May 2006 the park was handed back to its traditional Aboriginal owners in an historic agreement signed by NSW Environment Minister Bob Debus and the Yuin people.
The walking tracks have excellent views of rainforests and old goldmine sites. The mountain is an isolated volcanic
core rising 797 metres above sea level and towering over the historical villages of Tilba Tilba and Central
Tilba. Viewed from the sea the mountain resembles a dromedary camel.
The return walk to the top is approximately 11kms and takes about 5 hours.
The rainforest is a spectacular sight with pinkwood and sassafras trees draped with long green moss and
lichen to create a cathedral like effect; the forest floor being covered with fragile ground ferns and mosses.
