Mud Springs

Adventure Way, Eulo QLD 4491

The Mud Springs are located nine kilometres west of Eulo. The mud springs have evolved due to the underground pressure from the Great Artesian Basin, forcing mud through fissures in the ground. The mud springs are centuries old. Since the sinking of bores the pressure has lessened and many of the mud springs are no longer active. The mound is quite hard on top and sounds hollow if you jump on it.
