Divining / Dowsing For Groundwater & Drilling a Bore Well
Using L-Shaped Rods for Water Divining isn't something we'd normally be out and about trying out, but after this experience we both learned that there is definitely something to this ancient art.
Join us as we look for Groundwater after some guidance from a professional Diviner with decades of experience, and see the rods do their magic.
In the end we'll share if we were successful at finding groundwater, and you'll also see us dowsing in the exact spot where the bore well was drilled, to demonstrate the kind of reading that the professional diviner followed in determining where to locate a bore well.
For those less into 'magic-like' methods for predicting where groundwater is located, we'll also show you an overview of the Australian Groundwater Explorer database by the Bureau of Meteorology that can also help you gain an idea for the likelihood of your area having a ground water source.
