West Head, Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. Originally home to the Guringai People, the area was declared a National Park in 1894 (making it the second oldest in NSW, preceded only by the Royal National Park in 1879).
This particular area is the Basin Track Aboriginal Engraving Site - a large rock surface depicting men, fish, hopping wallabies and a club.
