Chambers Gorge Rock Pool
Water Source
Hidden in the rugged country between the Birdsville Track and Flinders Ranges, this permanent rock pool sits in a dramatic red-walled gorge. Clear, cold water year-round makes it a reliable refill point for extended desert crossings. The pool is deep enough for a quick swim after dusty trail days.
Access via rough 4WD track — high clearance essential, loose rocks and washouts common. No facilities, pack out all rubbish. Popular with Birdsville Track runners as a side trip for water and scenery.
