Kambah Pool, Canberra

Relax in the spectacular rock pools of Kambah Pool on the Murrumbidgee River. The Murrumbidgee River also offers sandy beaches, picnic tables, barbecue facilities, and toilets. Kambah Pool offers a nudist area, located in a secluded area along a track beyond the main rock pools. There are walking tracks along the river. The walk to Pine Island is easy to moderate, and follows the river for eight kilometers. Halfway between Kambah Pool and Pine Island is the Red Rocks Gorge area. The brown, red and grey colors in this dramatic formation are caused by oxidisation of the iron rich rocks.
