Hot springs tourism amenities
Although Tallaroo is already well improved, potential remains for further development of water and fencing infrastructure offering the possibility to increase manageability and carrying capacity up to 500 head depending on the season. Tallaroo’s hot springs , closed for two years, offer potential to reinstate a rewarding tourism venture. Currently disused amenities include a swimming pool filled by water from the springs - once a popular tourist attraction, a modern ablution block and a camping area on the bank of the Einasleigh River . Tallaroo offers buyers the opportunity to own a well developed functional property with sound infrastructure, abundant water and scope for improvement.
