Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- HahnTravelsLiverpool, Australia1,300 contributionsEnjoyed this. Beautifully laid out with plenty of variety. Some walking and hills to keep in mind. Loved the lakes, rainforest areas as well and plenty of water dragons to keep you interested. 10-12 minute walk from city.Written 17 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pablo SBrisbane, Australia2 contributionsI've been there for the third time yesterday. Every time I come I find a beautiful new feature that I hadn't noticed before. This time it was the Tropical Dome. I don't want to spoil it, I'll just tell you: don't miss it! Quite a sensorial experience! Also don't miss the Japanese gardens and Bonsai display. Fantastic! I recommend going as soon as it opens when it's not very crowded. 😄Written 3 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- crutt13Pottstown, PA650 contributionsBeautiful river with incredible views of Brisbane. Lots of easily access areas along the river.

- phuttyTallinn, Estonia1,408 contributionsPerfectly sized for an hour or two of strolling, these gardens are well worth a visit if for no other reason than to escape the hustle and bustle of central Brisbane. We visited later in the afternoon, however, and were surprised to find that cafes etc. in the gardens (and indeed in the city centre) were already closed, so do bear this in mind. Apparently it's a Brisbane/Queensland thing.Written 18 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Dan LBunbury, Australia9,033 contributionsNice park area alongside the Brisbane River, admittedly we spent most of our time at the upper levels, too many steps down to the river walk although ok near the Holman Ferry stop. Great area for cyclists, walkers and those exercising their dogs or to just have a lie down and enjoy a snack. Some attractive public art throughout the park at river level, the natural history trail also interesting. Lengthy walk and enjoyed a coffee from Alfred's Mobile before catching the ferry.Written 7 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Geraldine DCanvey Island, UK54 contributionsWe used public transport to and from Brisbane CBD which was very easy.
The views were truly amazing
The viewing platforms made taking photos of the many views to be very easy, especially panoramic vistas
It did get crowded on occasions when tourist disembarked from the many tour buses that stopped there. Luckily, there was a quick turnaround as they seemed to be back on buses within 15 minutesWritten 4 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The lookout about half way round was a great spot for lunch with view over Somerset Dam and Lake Wivenhoe. The track does cross the 4WD track a bit, so you do hear the cars/bike etc. Plenty of bird life and really nice to get out of the city and into the bush.Written 29 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- charmi_13Brisbane, Australia97 contributionsVisited the playgrounds at Rocks Riverside Park with my young son. There are several playgrounds/play areas scattered around. The toddler playground is fully fenced and quite shady. The water play areas are super shallow and great for young children. Adults can supervise without getting all wet. Very cool park, very enjoyable. There was one coffee van, which was great. Some more food options would be fantastic 👌🏽Written 20 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Vivek MBrisbane, Australia6 contributionsA breathtaking and serene view of Lake Wivenhoe and Wivenhoe dam. A beautiful recreation area is available nearby for family picnics, a few meters from the lake.Written 19 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- WorldTravla7Cairns, Australia8,674 contributionsI did this short & easy rainforest hike up in Mt Glorious on a weekend. It’s perfect for beginners with an easy/flat track, lots of signage, boardwalks & graded paths. The walk is pretty, with lush rainforest all around you. It’s 4.3km return and you walk to Greenes Falls & back. The falls are nice but nothing special when compared to other giants in SEQ like Purling Brook & Larapinta or even smaller ones like Buderim Falls & Curtis Falls. The draw card is the beautiful walk through the fairyland-like rainforest which is well worth doing.Written 6 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
