Yunggai

Yunggai lies near Tumbarumba on the western slopes of the Snowy Mountains. Ngarigo, Wiradjuri and Walgalu communities have connections to the mountain country and its approaches. In summer, people from several nations travelled into the high mountains to gather bogong moths, which shelter in rock crevices in great numbers. These journeys brought neighbouring groups together for ceremony as well as food, linking the wooded foothills with the alpine peaks.
