Kalgan Pool

Nature & Parks

Explore the captivating Kalgan Pool, nestled in the heart of the Ophthalmia Range, just an hour and a half’s drive from Newman.

Tucked away in the eastern end of the range, visitors can immerse themselves in the natural beauty of Kalgan Pool, home to a diverse aquatic ecosystem that includes a thriving fish population, turtles, and majestic pythons. With its breathtaking scenery and tranquil surroundings, Kalgan Pool stands out as one of the most popular waterholes near Newman.

The site is accessed via gravel roads and rocky terrains, most suitable for high clearance 4WDs, and is not suitable for caravans. Swimming is possible when water levels permit, and campers are encouraged to be responsible by taking all rubbish with them and leaving no trace. Kalgan Pool is pet-friendly. A road permit is required and can be obtained at the Newman Visitor Centre for a gold coin donation.
