#visitcunnamulla

Step into the Artesian Time Tunnel and be transported back in time 100 million years and hear the story of the Great Artesian Basin – the lifeblood of the Outback. Learn how the underground river flows beneath 1/5 of inland Australia and helps to water this great country, and how our landscape has been transformed and moulded by water, especially in the Paroo region with the natural wonders of mud springs, opals and the mighty Warrego and Paroo Rivers. While you’re there, explore the history of Cunnamulla through the Bicentennial Historical Museum, telling tales of time past, and enjoy the local art displayed in the Cunnamulla Fella Visitor Centre’s Art Gallery. www.cunnamullatourism.com.au

If you are yet to experience an Artesian Bath, we’ve got you covered! Ease your tensions and head over to the Artesian Spa in Yowah which consists of hot and cooler pools and the spa. These are open all year round and are a great place to unwind even for those with mobility impairments. If your skin is as dry and cracked as a creek bed in drought, dial up the Outback therapy with an artesian mud bath at Eulo. A mineral-rich clay is mixed with artesian water, in your choice of temperature, to provide a therapeutic experience so good it has been rumoured to take the bend out of corrugated iron. Charlotte Plains offers Artesian Baths in a relaxing outdoor setting fed directly from a free-flowing bore, allowing you to simply unwind and wash all the stresses and worries about your day away. These baths are best used at night simply to be out under the stars and just be at peace with the world.

Wyandra began life as a water stop for the steam locomotives running the rails to Charleville and while it might be over 800km from the Gold Coast, Wyandra boasts its very own beach. Tucked into a bend on the Warrego River this sandy patch is the perfect spot for all the regular ‘day at the beach’ activities, so pack a picnic and the cricket bat!

All Aboard!
