The Goolarabooloo community have led the Lurujarri Dreaming Trail along Western Australia’s Kimberley coast, north of Broome, since 1987.1 The trail follows the land of the traditional song cycle for 80 kilometres along the beaches, dune systems and red sand bush. It is land that has been home to Aboriginal people for millennia – the same trail, the same camping places, the same fishing spots. Middens are filled with remnants of past food; and artefacts, including spear heads, charcoal, flints and grinding stones, are testament to the longevity and continuity of law and culture.
