Pilliga Artesian Bore Bath
Soak away those aches and pains in the 37-degree mineral-rich water of the Pilliga Artesian Bore Bath. It has become a popular recreational spot for swimming and camping, with the therapeutic value of the water having long been recognised by locals and visitors who make regular pilgrimages to the Bath. Open 24hrs a day, relax in the bath and enjoy the sunsets and serenity that Pilliga is known for.
The bore was originally constructed in 1902 as a permanent town water supply after a severe drought. In 1980 Tamworth Pool Contractors installed the present pool. Since then, ongoing improvements have been made including a roof covering the pool area, dressing sheds and toilets, and barbecue and picnic tables.
The Pilliga Artesian Bore Bath is a designated Primitive Campground with very basic facilities and no powered sites. A $7 fee is charged per site per night and the maximum stay is four nights.
Fees are to be paid ONLINE through our booking platform.
Fees are also payable at the Narrabri Region Visitor Information Centre and the Wee Waa Library.
Narrabri Shire Council asks that campers please leave the facilities as you find them and take your rubbish with you.
