From the Victorian Alps
A remarkable journey that led to the discovery of an ancient alpine aquifer beneath Victoria’s highest mountain.
Three Valleys is more than mineral water.
It is a story of place, discovery and time.
A keen surfer from Victoria’s coast made a life-changing decision to move to the Victorian Alps. He purchased a small farm in Mount Beauty, in the Kiewa Valley, at the foot of Mount Bogong.
Originally planning to farm in summer and work on the ski fields in winter, circumstances changed and he began to look for new opportunities within the land.
Acting on local advice, the owner invited an experienced water diviner to walk the property.
Using traditional divining rods, he slowly surveyed the land, stopped, and declared with certainty:
“Drill here.”
A bore was sunk to 120 metres. At that exact point, an extraordinary alpine aquifer was discovered.
Geological studies revealed the water originates from an ancient volcanic system more than 400 million years old, naturally filtered through layers of rock.
Naturally filtered. Mineral rich. Perfectly balanced.
💧 Kiewa = Sweet Water
Long before European settlement, the Kiewa Valley was home to First Nations peoples, including the Dhudhuroa, Jaithmathang and Waywurru peoples, who lived throughout the Victorian Alps for tens of thousands of years.
The name Kiewa is widely understood to derive from a First Nations word meaning “Sweet Water”. It seems fitting that a valley known as Sweet Water would one day reveal an extraordinary mineral source beneath its surface.
The Kiewa Valley lies between two neighbouring alpine valleys that together form a significant part of Victoria’s famous alpine region.
Infrastructure was established to protect the source, store the water and transport it for bottling.
Sunk deep into ancient alpine rock.
Water is extracted and carefully filtered on site.
Held in stainless steel tanks for purity and stability.
Bulk tankers collect the water for secure delivery.
Bottled to high standards for purity and quality.
