A natural geothermal area in the Atherton Tablelands where hot mineral water bubbles up from beneath the earth into a series of pools along the Nettle Creek. Visitors can dig their own hot pool in the sandy creek bed and mix the scalding mineral water with cool creek water to create the perfect temperature.
Know before you go
Bring a small shovel to dig your own pool. Water can be extremely hot—test before entering. Small entry fee at the private facility.
