Special Stories and Songlines of Life, Land and Larder
Special Stories and Songlines of Life, Land and Larder
Gnamma Holes are natural depressions or rock-holes hollowed out through chemical weathering processes in granite domes or other hard rock surfaces. They allow pools of fresh rainwater to form and have been an important and sometimes sacred feature for Aboriginal people for over 60,000 years. Gnamma holes created critical water supplies for the Aborigines, influencing their annual migration patterns or songlines across the western half of Australia.
In a similar fashion to gnamma holes, this site serves as a place where special stories of life, land and larder are gathered and pooled. The Gnamma Hole is repository of special places, people, and experiences that refresh, restore and enrich us along our life journeys – whoever and wherever we are in the world.
We hope this site inspires you to go out and explore new places, experiences and to share them with others on social media.
If you have a special story to tell, email us for our consideration (all contributing authors fully acknowledged).

This is a story about a journey to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, Spain. The 800 or so Kilometers of this journey takes between 4-6 weeks to complete. Just as in Life, there are many paths to choose for the beginning of your pilgrimage, some shorter than others, but all leading to the ultimate goal of reaching the Cathedral. Listen and enjoy Hank Leukart's pilgrimage along the Ancient Spiritual Trail!
