Djeran is the Noongar name for the April and May season; a time when the bush is lush and green with the arrival of cooler weather. It is traditionally a time to prepare for the heavy rains to come, when Noongar people would move inland to the freshwater lakes on Mooro Boodjar (Joondalup country). Banksias are beginning to bloom, while young Yaarkan (turtles) have now grown into adulthood.

Discover the wonders of Djeran on an inspiring and educational walk through the trees around Lake Joondalup, led by Olman Walley from Boorloo Aboriginal Cultural Experiences.

Escape the bustle of urban living and go on a journey through nature to find some of our largest local trees. Learn about their uses and significance to Noongar people and hear the stories of their connection to other elements of the landscape.

Suitable for all ages. Please wear comfortable enclosed shoes for walking, a hat and bring a water bottle.

Cost $5.00 inclusive of light catering and a free WA Tree Festival seedling. Places are limited, book and pay online.
