Kuku Nyungkal Country lies in the northern part of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. The boundaries of our Country stretch from Annan River, Kings Plain, Rossville, Shiptons Flat and Mount Amos/Archer Point to Cedar Bay and includes Hope Islands

Famous quotes containing the word country:
“I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its “successful experiment” that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“The man who pretends that the distribution of income in this country reflects the distribution of ability or character is an ignoramus. The man who says that it could by any possible political device be made to do so is an unpractical visionary. But the man who says that it ought to do so is something worse than an ignoramous and more disastrous than a visionary: he is, in the profoundest Scriptural sense of the word, a fool.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“My country is the world, and my religion is to do good.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
