Warriparinga Wetlands And Living Kaurna Cultural Centre

'Warriparinga', a windy place by the river, is an important and sacred place for the Kaurna people, the Aboriginal custodians of the Adelaide Plains. Located in Marion, only 20 minutes south of the city, it is the beginning of the Tjilbruke Dreaming Track, which follows the coastline to Cape Jervis. It is a peaceful reserve and wetland with an abundance of the bird and wildlife. The Living Kaurna Cultural Centre is integral in ensuring that Kaurna culture and the Dreaming Story of the Land, is passed on from generation to generation.

The Living Kaurna Cultural Centre offers the opportunity to learn about Kaurna culture and share in the special peace that exists in Warriparinga. The Living Kaurna Cultural Centre offers: guided groups tours, educational programs for schools on Kaurna culture and the wetlands environment, a Kaurna heritage display, a meeting are for corporate and community functions and workshops, Kaurna arts and cultural workshops, performances and conciliation events, such as the Full Moon Friendship Fires and a Bush Tucker Cafe.

On the pathways you will traves, the land tells about Indigenous and non-Indigenous people, the bush, animals, plant foods and the river.

Come in, go near, listen, explore, and look around.
