I've never gone gold fossicking apart from the odd trip to sovereign hill.
Have a couple of international friends coming and thought it would be fun to do some real planning to give them a taste of authentic australian history. Are there any rivers or creeks that promise even fine gold that are accessible to a 2 wheel drive between melbourne and bendigo/ballarat?
I know you can at sovereign hill but would prefer to take them to see wild gold because they've been there before and it's nice but isn't quite the same
If its promising I'll get a miner's right etc
Guessing hiring a metal detector would be easier but would mean we just walk around without talking
Cheers
