Day one of our SpaCrawl, starting off with Pilliga Bore Baths. These baths are filled with naturally heated 38 degrees celsius, mineral rich water . This water is constantly running from hundreds of metres underground where it is heated by the earth. Flows into a specially constructed pool which has steps, rails, overhead lighting and a roof. Whilst open on all sides soaking in the warm waters is supposed to be beneficial for those suffering from arthritis and various joint wear, stiffness and damage. Visits are free and open 24 hours. Some people have been camping in the free campground for months at a time. It is seriously in the middle of nowhere and I was disheartened when we approached and found the camp ground packed with campers, caravans, tents and motorhomes ranging in sizes from modest to magnificent. Last week they had 30mm(just over an inch) of rain. The dirt car park and campground bears the deep dried wheel ruts of recently departed campers, either by choice or necessity. We were told "if it rains get out quick!" Sound advice from an experienced camper who had been stuck for days in puggy red sticky clay. No doubt a very unpleasant experience. About 1 km from the baths is the Pilliga Cafe, make sure you visit and partake in the works burger. And share a serve of chips. Then don't plan to eat anything for a couple of days. Fresh, fast and fabulous. Hats off to the friendly little girls who cooked our lunch.
