The Tyrendarra area features the remains of a large, settled community that systematically farmed eels for food and trade in one of Australia's earliest and largest aquaculture ventures. You can find the remains of a complex system of natural and artificially created wetlands, channels, the stone bases of weirs and stone fish traps that were built by Gunditj Mara people thousands of years ago.
Gunditj Mara people constructed the channels to manipulate water flows and the weirs to modify and create wetlands that provided ideal growing conditions for the shortfinned eel and other fish.
Not only are poisonous snakes prolific, but the uneven and rocky lava flow can make travel, both on foot and with four wheel drive vehicles, quite slow. Be careful when exploring the area over the summer months as grassfires move very quickly.
Check the Fire Danger Rating and enable the FireReady smart phone app before venturing into this area. A beach or water activity may be a better alternative on high fire risk days.
