Wave Rock itself does not have a known Aboriginal name. However, nearby is a cave called Mulka's Cave, taken from the legend of a young man named Mulka who killed and ate children, and hid out in the cave.

Why is wave rock so important to aboriginals?

Wave Rock, a granite cliff, is 15 meters high and 110 meters long. Its rounded shape has been caused by weathering and water erosion which has undercut the base and left a rounded overhang. It is believed that the Aborigines, who were the first to inhabit the area, gave the district a wide berth during the past century and a half for fear of the spirit of Mulka.
