Gnamma Holes at Wattoning historical site near Mukinbudin. The gnamma holes were dug to obtain water by people from Aboriginal tribes living in the area thousands of years ago. Some holes still hold water. Early pastoralists from the 1870s carted water using buckets and ropes from the gnamma holes, a soak and two wells which they constructed. The site also has the remains of a homestead and graves of two babies and an earlier pioneer.
Beringbooding Rock lies north east of Mukinbudin and is the largest rock water catchment tank in Australia holding two and a quarter million gallons of water. It was built in 1937 using walls to direct the water from the rock into a tank below. Stunning colours of the granite rock can be seen in addition to balancing boulders, the ornate crevice dragon scurrying for cover, a huge gnamma hole and some paintings by the Kalamaia Tribes who lived in the area.
