Everything about Dalhousie Springs totally explained
Dalhousie Springs are collection of over 60 natural
artesian springs located in
Witjira National Park on the western fringe of the
Simpson Desert, 180 kilometres
northeast of
Oodnadatta in northern
South Australia. Spring water temperatures range from 38 to 43 degrees C. The water is highly mineralised but drinkable (barely). Dalhousie Springs are a popular starting point for crossing the Simpson Desert eastwards to
Birdsville in
Queensland (around 600 kilometres).
In 1915, the total flow rate of the Dalhousie Springs complex was over 23,000 liters/second, but drilling had reduced this to 17,360 liters/second by 2000.
There are a number of unique species of fish that live in the waters around Dalhousie Springs, such as the Dalhousie catfish, the Dalhousie hardyhead and some species of
chlamydogobius.
