Kurilpa Futures: Strolling the Floodplains

Meet: West End Ferry Terminal (public transport accessible)

Kurilpa has always been a place that people of all nations have walked and lived upon. The green edge that has survived is constantly in flux. This walk explores the evolution of the river edge and how First Nations culture, climate, citizen action, politics and development have shaped it, and may yet shape it again. 

Highlights include:

• First Nations documented history on the peninsula

• How flooding has impacted the area over the last two centuries

• The origins of Orleigh Park and Davies Park

• Transportation links, past, present and future

• Community activism and what the future holds
