Wollemi National Park was the traditional home of the Wiradjuri, Dharug, Wanaruah and Darkinjung people, with evidence of their occupation including ceremonial grounds, stone arrangements, grinding grooves, scarred trees and rock engravings. There are about 300 recorded Aboriginal heritage sites in the national park, but the rugged and remote topography means that for every known site there are likely to be at least two more yet to be “discovered”. Many significant Aboriginal sites like “Eagles Reach” have only been recorded in the last decade.
