Located in north western New South Wales, the Moree spas attract over 300,000 travellers each year.
Drawn from the Great Artesian Basin, 900 metres underground, the water is said to cure all sorts of ailments and even be the fountain of youth.
The Moree Hot Mineral Baths is a popular spot for Moree's numerous retirees, who sit, swim and even drink the water they claim is the elixir of life.
While many have their own thoughts on why the water is so good, the locals believe the healing formula is the result of the eight different minerals in the water combining with the natural warmth - a temperate 39 degrees. All that aside one of the main reason for the baths success is the social aspect.
The baths are open to visitors of all ages and for those seeking total relaxation follow your soak with a 25-minute massage. After a hot bath and a massage even cynics are assured to walk out feeling better.
In Moree The Great Outdoors team stayed at The Sundowner Moree, which like many motels in Moree also has its very own artesian spa bath.
