Highlights

The water in Walgett Bore Baths, naturally heated to a temperature of 41.5 degrees, comes from the Great Artesian Basin and is a great spot for a long soak. The water found in bore baths such as Lightning Ridge, Burren Junction and Walgett comes from the Great Artesian Basin and is approximately two million years old.
