Peron Homestead & Hot Tub
Peron Homestead
An old sheep station inside the national park with a 40°C artesian hot spring pool, reachable even in two-wheel-drive vehicles.
Peron Homestead was a 20th-century sheep station. Its preserved shearing shed, workers' quarters and water wells, along with information panels, tell the story of pastoral farming and the national park. The most popular feature is the outdoor hot spring pool, fed by artesian water from underground, at about 40°C. After soaking, you can rest in the picnic area next door. The homestead is about 10 km from Denham. The roughly 6 km sand track from the entrance to the homestead is generally passable in two-wheel drive, though care is needed after rain or when the sand is soft. Beyond the homestead to the north, four-wheel drive is required. A national park pass is needed.
