The Hanmer Springs Thermal Springs are low temperature springs produced as a result of the fractured rock bed along the Hanmer Fault. The thermal water originates from rainwater that fell 180 years ago, which seeped down through fractured rock in the Hanmer Mountains to a depth of about two kilometres below the Hanmer plains.Heat radiating from the Earth's core raises the temperature of the rainwater in the underground reservoir. This heated water then rises to the surface through a series of interconnecting fractures in the greywacke rock.
