Hastings Thermal Springs, located in the Hastings Caves State Reserve in Tasmania's Huon Valley, emerge from dolomite limestone at a constant 28°C, making them among the warmest naturally occurring springs on the island. The pool is surrounded by temperate rainforest, and visitors often combine a thermal soak with a tour of the adjacent Newdegate Cave, where stunning speleothem formations reveal millions of years of geological history. The springs are managed by Tasmania's Parks and Wildlife Service, preserving their unique ecosystem and offering a gentle, family-friendly thermal experience in a pristine wilderness setting.
