The Drumley Walk is an annual three day walking pilgrimage through the traditional lands of the Yugambeh Aboriginal people. It leaves from Beaudesert, south of Brisbane, and traverses farms, rainforests and bushlands to Southport, on the Gold Coast. Walkers are guided by Drumley's descendants and relatives, and learn about local history, and indigenous culture. And they are encouraged to celebrate all local heroes, Aboriginal or non-Aboriginal.
The walk is started by the mayor of the Scenic Rim Region and finishes with Yugambeh Corroboree, an indigenous food, art and language festival where Drumley's walk traditionally finished, by the beautiful Nerang River.
