Engelbrecht Cave
This huge complex of limestone caves under the city was first explored in 1884. Cave divers regularly explore this site and have provided maps showing the underground cave system. Tours take visitors down into two of the chambers. Learn how caves are formed and how the underground water filters through the limestone, making its way to the Blue Lake. www.engelbrechtcave.com.au
Umpherston Sinkhole
Once a cave, formed through the dissolution of the limestone, this sinkhole was created when the top of the chamber fell into the floor of the cave, creating the perfect environment for its sunken garden. Originally beautified by James Umpherston around 1886. It is open at all times and each evening the possums venture out to feed. www.mountgambiertourism.com.au
