Description:
The Canning Stock Route runs through 5 determined native title areas - Tjurabalan, Ngurrara, Martu and Birriliburu and Wiluna. The traditional owners are descendants of people who met with Canning's teams and often include people who were still living traditionally during the droving days of the Stock Route. They have very detailed knowledge of the country along the length of the Canning Stock Route. Representatives of these native title areas come together in Kuju Wangka, which is focused on preserving the environmental, cultural and heritage values of the country along the Stock Route. Kuju Wangka is supported by the Kimberley Land Council, Mungarlu Ngurrarankatja Rirraunkaja Aboriginal Corporation, Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa, and Central Desert Native Title Services. These agencies work with the traditional owners to help them to preserve and protect their culture, heritage and sites.

Usage Restriction:
Lands in this region are subject to Native Title and should be contacted for further information.
