Bundian Way Whale Dreaming Trail

Experience the Whale Dreaming Trail in Eden: An Introduction Discover the ancient relationship between the traditional Aboriginal people, the Katungal, and the beowas (killer whales) that predates European history by thousands of years on a 600-meter return walk through native gardens in Eden.

The trail begins at the bottom of Imlay Street near Snug Cove, and with specially designed signage, you will learn about the Whale Dreaming Trail while admiring the fantastic view over Turemulerrer (Twofold Bay), where the Katungal people would welcome the killer whales.

The Whale Dreaming Trail is a fascinating experience that requires approximately 30-40 minutes to complete. As you walk up towards the lookout over Twofold Bay, you will notice the well-maintained native gardens along the way. The view from the lookout shows the coastal gateway to the Bundian Way and is an excellent spot to relax and admire the serene beauty of the ocean.

When you're ready, you can return to the start point and continue towards the Eden Killer Whale Museum, or you can choose to follow the path towards the museum and eventually arrive back at the starting point. The trail is accessible from either end.

The best times to explore the Whale Dreaming Trail are from December to February during the summer season, where the temperature averages at 27°C. Eden is located on the New South Wales Sapphire Coast, around a 6-hour drive from Sydney and a 7-hour drive from Melbourne. If you are flying, you can take a QantasLink flight to Merimbula, and
