Discover more about Metung Hot Springs

Metung Hot Springs is a wellness destination set on a naturally undulating site overlooking the magnificent Gippsland Lakes in Victoria's East Gippsland region. The hot springs offer visitors a chance to rejuvenate and connect with nature through geothermal bathing and wellness activities. In the 1920s, miners accidentally discovered geothermal water in Metung, sparking a tradition of hot springs bathing. The original pools closed in the mid-1990s due to maintenance issues, but the allure of the natural springs remained. In November 2022, Metung Hot Springs opened to the public. The 25-acre site features geothermal hot spring pools of varying depths, bathing barrels with picturesque cliff top views of Lake King, massaging thermal showers, a reflexology walk, and nature walks around the grounds. The must-indulge feature is the Hilltop escarpment, a tranquil communal bathing experience with a stargazing pool and individual bathing barrels offering spectacular views. Beyond bathing, Metung Hot Springs offers a day spa, glamping accommodation, and The Clubhouse restaurant. The Metung Country Club, with its 9-hole golf course, is also nearby. The hot springs are designed to complement the natural environment, with ongoing efforts to restore the landscape and use local materials.
