(CNN) — Some of Australia's most beautiful natural sites have been returned to Aboriginal ownership, including Queensland's Daintree rainforest.
The area of more than 160,000 hectares will now be co-managed by the Queensland government and the Eastern Kuku Yalanji people with a hope of eventually transitioning into being run solely by the Indigenous owners.
An official acknowledgment ceremony was held on Wednesday, September 29 in the town of Bloomfield.
