Explore a Labyrinth of Tunnels
Feeling adventurous? get into your hardhat, slip into your overalls, lock onto the ladder system and descent approximately 20 metres below the prison to explore a labyrinth of tunnels built by prisoners. Discover original blast holes, bores, oil lamp recesses, and artefacts from the days when working in the tunnels was hard labour for the prisoners.
Guides lead the trek through dry sections of the tunnels on foot, before boarding replica convict punts to explore the submerged passageways accessible only by boat.
