Hastings Thermal Springs

In the deep south of Tasmania's ancient Huon Valley lies a very special secret – Hastings Thermal Springs. A 90-minute drive from Hobart's CBD, Hastings is a natural hot spring that pumps at a toasty 28-degree temp year round. While this thermal spring has been turned into a very human-looking pool, it is still fed from an underground natural spring full of rich, healthy minerals that are meant to do wonders for your skin. Entry to the springs is $5 for adults and can be booked on arrival at the Visitor's Centre. There are amenities on site, and you can do some gorgeous little day walks through the forest too. In the cold forests of Tassie, we reckon this soak will pack a particular punch.
