Overview

If you are planning on exploring the Atherton Tablelands while in Tropical North Queensland, it's worth heading a little further afield to visit nearby Innot Hot Springs. Unlike the modern facilities framing other geothermal pools in the region, Innot Hot Springs is more rustic and untouched.

There was once a time where the water was bottled at the Innot Cordial Factory in Townsville and sent to Europe as a natural health remedy. These days, the springs are a little more shallow and sandy, with visitors scooping out deeper holes to sink themselves into. The charming Hot Springs Hotel has lots of character, with cold beer and classic pub meals on offer. Tip: make sure you wear thongs or shoes when walking to the pools as the sand can be very hot.
