Visitors can
camp overnight for free (maximum 20-hour stay), or you may like to day trip from
Cloncurry or
Mount Isa - both with a drive time of 1 hour 10 minutes. There are no facilities so you must be self sufficient. Take your rubbish with you. The area is surrounded by spectacular scenery and abundant with wildlife.
To get to
Fountain Springs, you need to travel the
Fountain Springs Circuit which is around 40km long and requires a 4WD vehicle.
Starting at the
Fountain Springs Rest Area on
Barkly Highway (60km east of
Mount Isa or 60km west of
Cloncurry), follow the track to Ballara, passing by the Corella River. Along the way, you'll see Mount Philip on your left with its volcanic peak. The large split in the Fountain Range marks
the entrance to
Fountain Springs.
