Important Update Regarding Bajinhurrba (Cossack):

As of 9th April 2024, Bajinhurrba (Cossack) will be closed. This means that there will be no accommodation, café, gallery, shop or museum available to the public, and many of the heritage buildings will be locked. At this time, the Heritage Trail, fishing wharf and boat ramp will remain available for the public to access at its own risk.

The Ngarluma Yindjibarndi Foundation Ltd has been proudly managing and activating Bajinhurrba and its significant historic and cultural heritage on behalf of the State Government for four years.

Unfortunately, due to bureaucratic delays and mismanagement by the State, it is no longer sustainable or safe for the not for profit Traditional Owner organisation to continue its management. We are incredibly disappointed and devastated at the impact this will have on our community, staff, and the heritage assets.

The media statement below provides more details.

If you require access to the site, please contact the Land Management (North) team at the Department of Planning Lands and Heritage.

We know how important Bajinhurrba is to the community, our members and to our stakeholders, which is why we have persevered for so long in the hope of achieving the outcomes we envisioned. We ask that visitors continue to engage with the heritage of the site with respect and care.
