Mud Springs

The Mud Springs are located nine kilometres west of Eulo.

Built up over centuries these Mud Springs were the original release valves for the Great Artesian Basin.

As underground pressure grows, mud is forced up through fissures in the ground. You’ll notice the mounds have soft jelly-like tops. These springs are centuries old and are a permanent water source in our semi-arid landscape.

This super-group of Great Artesian Basin (GAB) springs have very high conservation value. They support specialised plants and animals only found in GAB springs.
