Mungindi Swimming Pool Complex

Whether you’re enjoying the Great Artesian Drive or simply want to escape from it all, the Mungindi (Hot) Swimming Pool Complex might be the perfect place for you. This unique rural town overlaps the New South Wales and Queensland borders and offers a tranquil mineral bath as well as a cooler pool for swimming laps.

In 1996, the Mungindi Swimming Pool Complex began transporting mineral-rich water from a bore diving 1,037 meters below ground into the Great Artesian Basin. Since then, the basin has supplied naturally rejuvenated waters to the pool and is now a hot spot for locals and those passing through Mungindi.
