Then take a self-guided surface tour of the mine and discover a treasure trove of vintage machinery, including the 108-year-old winder, the only one of its type still operating in Australia. While on the surface try your hand at gold panning and climb to the top of the poppet head for a fantastic birds eye view of the Central Deborah Gold Mine and the surrounding city of Bendigo.
