With such a diversity of bushwalking opportunities in Queensland, tagging along with an established group is the best way to get the most out of your adventure. Established in 1948, the Brisbane Bushwalking Group has considerable knowledge of the areas around Brisbane and the South East. Safety is an ongoing concern and they offer training in rock confidence, first aid and navigation. The Club meets every second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 7.30pm at the Newmarket Memorial Hall (Corner of Ashgrove Avenue and Enoggera Rd, Newmarket, Brisbane, QLD 4051).

 Picturesque city views |
Lower River Terrace Kangaroo Point Brisbane, QLD 4169 Australia http://www.brisbanetourism.com.au |
The sheer sandstone cliffs of Kangaroo Point and the riverwalk below them, are great places from which to admire the city skyline. Floodlit at night, the cliffs look spectacular and are now a popular spot for rock climbers and abseilers to test their skills. Picnic tables and barbecues are dotted along the riverwalk, which is conveniently split to cater for walkers on one path and cyclists on another. Sculptures, old wharves and a mangrove boardwalk are features of interest on the walk, which starts at the northern end of South Bank and winds its way to Kangaroo Point. Review © 2007, Wcities |
