Recommended 👍 cave garden, overlooking its panoramic view from the top viewing platform, then walk into the garden along the terrace and hanging vines. Possums appear at dusk and enjoy being fed fresh fruit (please don't feed bread).

Highlights of Umpherston Sinkhole / Balumbul
The cave garden, also known as the sunken garden, was once a cave formed by the dissolution and weathering of limestone. The top of the cave collapsed due to weathering and erosion, thus becoming the sunken shape that everyone sees today.

Overall, you can still come here to see it. There are no tickets, but we have thanked the hydrangea when we came at the end of January, so we didn't take pictures of the beautiful beauty. Fortunately, the weather was very sunny.
The second attraction of Gambier is the cave garden, which is transformed from a mine to a garden, free of charge and very distinctive. This is worth coming, not far from the Blue Lake. I can't see this garden from the ground, I found out that there is no other heaven and earth after I approached it. There is no more feeling from the top. When you walk down the stairs, I feel that this place is really like a small world. Although the area is not large, it is full of various plants and flowers, even the walls are green, and the temperature feels a few degrees lower. Walking in this garden is like in a fairytale small world, it is recommended to take a look!
This is my second visit to the garden of Mt Gambier’s cave and I think this is probably my favorite spot in Mt Gambier.
It's smaller than I thought, but it's good to heal. It's a fantastic place to hear birds.
Mount Gambier is a famous cave gathering place in Australia, with many underground caves, and the cave garden is a very strange place to see. At the intersection of a cave, the plants here are very lush, but it is underground, it is really amazing, definitely worth visiting.
