The Gully in Katoomba, also known as Garguree or the Katoomba Falls Creek Valley, is a deeply significant cultural and environmental site in the Blue Mountains. Declared an official Aboriginal Place in 2002, The Gully has been home to Gundungurra, Darug, Wonnarua, Wiradjuri, Darkinjung and Tharawal peoples for thousands of years, serving as a traditional gathering, ceremonial and camping site. Following European colonisation, the area was transformed dramatically—first through deforestation and mining in the late 19th century, then as an amusement park and motor racing circuit throughout the 20th century, culminating in the forced eviction of its Aboriginal residents in the late 1950s. Today, The Gully is jointly managed by Traditional Owners and the Blue Mountains City Council; its heart can be experienced via the Gully Walk, which shares Indigenous history and ecological values with visitors.
