Description

The Artesian Basin covers one-fifth of Australia and is considered the world's largest underground river. The Artesian Time Tunnel incorporates an old mine lift which takes you back 100 million years to discover the home of ancient animals and Australia's dinosaurs that roamed the Eromanga Inland Sea. Displays explain how the basin was formed, how it's used and how it's being managed. An excellent film explores the basin and its rehabilitation.
