Rare in Europe, these drains are everywhere under the australian cities. These underground drains carry out the canalization of rain water, completely separated from sewer networks.
Many of these drains are present below each city, each one having its nickname, story and features. Different shapes, sizes, entry & exit...
They are popular meeting, expression and exploration places for the Australian Cave Clan, THE urban exploration organization. The photos shown here depict the variety of these underground canalizations.

hey guys I'm trying to get into the draining scene the if anybody has locations or hints please do hit me up! <3 benperlp@hotmail.com
Ben, have you heard of dungeon?
Juno, obviously when it rains no drains. Always bring a friend and a map, and be careful as some drains can fill up with poisonous and flammable gases.
P.S. I have a list of all the drains in Melbourne, though everybody seems quite secretive about this stuff, so I’m unsure if I should share it as it might be immoral.
Cheers

Has anyone, or does anyone know someone who has, lived underground in Sydney for an extended period of time. I mean living in communities in storm drains and the like. I am writing a literary non-fiction piece about underground life and want to get in contact with someone who has lived/squatted subterraneanly. I am happy to keep identities anonymous. I have found a lot of information about these communities around the world but not about the ones in Sydney. I just know about it through a friend of a friend of a friend.
please get in touch if you have any information: petra.storm88@gmail.com

Im interested in checking out the drainage tunnels in Canberra, does anyone know of any good spots, or wants to come down with me - email michaelpasternack@live.com. I've heard theres some beautys undernesth black mountain
There's some small but decent ones near kaleen shops
... could not help to ask: why oh why is that individual barefoot walking inside these tunnels? major yuck... I love to see the product of urban exploration but do it safely!!! and do not disturb the scene - first rule of exploring. Do NOT tag.
I used to work at Billboards nightclub and remember a guy telling me he went through the tunnel telling me how fightening it was. It may be possible theres an access within the club (downstairs) or very close by.
