Beautiful & well maintained park. Parking is good & plenty to do.

Quite a nice area. It is well shaded and has great paths for people to walk on. The bridges are mostly nice and one afternoon I saw a truly enormous number of bats hanging from tree branches. Enormous! A few anecdotes - Every time I go to one side area where there is a small play area with swings there is a young girl there swinging away. No phone. No book. Just swinging. I finish walking the dog and she’s still swinging. I hope her home life is ok. I once saw a guy hit his dog. I didn’t like that. He was across the river so I only saw it and didn’t say anything. I suppose that makes me a coward. There is a wooden helicopter in one park and I will say that my (then) 10 month old daughter loved it. There is a rainforest area which I haven’t yet explored. More people than I would expect walk dogs with muzzles. So like why have them because if they need to be muzzled they ain’t safe bro. Old people love saying “good morning” and “good afternoon” and I love saying it back. Nice park

great park, clean toilets, pram/wheelchair friendly bush walks.

Great place to take all kids. Lots of short walks. A couple of playgrounds. Lots of animals to hear. You can see Fruit Bats birds and if very lucky small wallabies or lizards.

A number of different animals can be spotted here, from the ever present scrub turkeys to an array of other birds. However the most spectacular sight is when you walk the main path and come across several trees that are inhabited by flying foxes. Amazing! During the day the sleeping animals seem like hundreds of huge seed pods hanging from the trees. If you come here at dawn you can witness the bats returning from their "night out". It's an experience I'd highly recommend.

We started from the Downfall Creek Bushland Centre. Lots of parking, plus a playground and toilets. Walks are mostly flat, very easy. Some steps on one of loops, but are very wide so can navigate a pram on them. Very pleasant slice of bushland so close to city. We saw a number of animals - wallabies, bats, birds etc.

B-E-A-UTIFUL upgraded playground. Friendly staff in the conservation centre. Lovely, peaceful walks through the trees.

Great playground and the walking track was a hit with my daughter. She loved finding the numbers. She still talks about this place several weeks after and wants to go back.

Dog friendly, child friendly, bike friendly, mobility and visually impaired friendly....what a great reserve. Listen out for the bats and follow the sound to see 100s of them roosting overhead.

We had a lovely family bbq here,4 free BBQ's to use,a 1km bush walk and other bush tracks, playground for the kids and basketball court as well... The Bush Turkey's and magpies ,and maybe other animals will come say hello when cooking...We all absolutely loved it.. Don't forget the aeroguard for the mozzies as the sun goes down...

Always a beautiful place to Visit. The BCC gardeners do a great job down there but sometimes parking is an issue. Great BBQ’s and covered shelters plus an awesome playground for the entire family to enjoy.

Beautiful place to wander

Perfect walk, especially if you have younger kids. My 3 boys aged between 18months-6yrs love it, they take along their scooters. At the end there is an awesome park, sensory walk, bbq area and a basketball court.

Nice place for trekking

Nice local place to stroll.

Great walking tracks and good play ground for the kids.

Beautiful walk, well paved paths and well kept signs.

Great area,toilets,picnic area,info centre.bush walks,no problems parking.Great for kids.

Very good for the kids to learn about nature

Well thought out parkland from the community garden and compost area to the great kids playground and nature path. There is ample coverage for parties and has a mini outdoor concert area aswell. The only downside is the amount of mosquitoes who look like roided out gym bunnies

Great walking track

Wonderful nature park. Quite a few trails, very peaceful.

Great nature walk for families highly recommended

Great park, great walk, great new playground. Please don't visit, want it to myself..

I grew up in McDowall and lived just down the road from Raven Street Reserve. I spent my days with other children in my street playing in the bush making cubby houses, bike jumps and walking in the bush bare foot I wouldn't do that now. I have fond happy memories of living and enjoying Raven Street Reserve. I too this day still walk along the path with my parents, Support Worker and Occupational therapist. I recommend Raven Street Reserve too everyone and I hope everyone experiences the same thing I did and enjoy Raven Street Reserve as much as I did most of my life.

Great place for a picnic and walk, especially if you have kids.

One of the best hidden treasure parks. A small but beautiful park that also has walks that can lead you all the way up to Aspley. The equipment is well made , in great condition and themed great. Attached to the resource center which has a lot of valuable local information in regards to wildlife and gardening.

We came for the geocaches (found all four!), and stayed for the recently upgraded playground at the bushland centre. We hadn’t visited in a couple of years, and it is *vastly* improved. For the reserve itself: The walking/cycling paths are paved and very mobility friendly, except for a couple sets of stairs, but there are alternative routes. The scenery is niiiice, particularly if you’re as partial to Xanthorrhoeas as I am, and the serenity is A+ (save for the frequent encounters with nuclear families arguing over which path is the one they need to take, followed by a second encounter as they backtrack after realising they should’ve listened to the kids). If you want a bigger walk, head North to the top of the reserve, up the long staircase alongside Raven St (no alternative route for this one I’m afraid), and over the wildlife bridge across Hamilton Rd. Go up that hill (another staircase, in the second photo, or take the water tank service road) and check out the new Milne Hill lookout - especially at sunset. You might also see some wallabies on your way back down at that time of day.

Lovely shady forest park. Interactive family forest app available for exploring. I havent tried it but looks like a fun way to explore the surrounds. The playground is really lovely and encourages imaginative play

A very nice walking track but recommend not to walk by yourself as I was met by a strange man walking by.

I took my grandson and we had the best time. He is nearly three but there were all ages there. Great sensory trail, the playground has recently been updated - so much to do and see. It would also be a great place for a picnic or bar b que!

Great place to learn about our environment and how we can contribute to our surroundings . A good information centre and a playground for the children.

A nice spot to go on a trail. Beautiful bush. Plenty of parking spots. Kids play area is good too.

A great place for a walk and a picnic, lots of wildlife around, and an awesome playground for the kids.

Great day out with my 5year old son. Friendly people along the path and all round beautiful nature walk

Great park. Lot's of very nice walking tracks

Beautiful pram and dog friendly walks

My favourite escape to nature in the middle of suburbia

Walk a great place to take a leisure bushwalk

This is a beautiful Park with great amenities. Includes a lovely environmental walk for all. Even suitable for wheelchairs. The children's playground equipment is fantastic. With swings. 😊 There is a great picnic area and bbq facilities for several families. There is mostly bush land to explore but some grassed land to run around. Toilets also.

Nice simple walking area, remarkably clean. Took the dog for a little walk and she seemed interested in a lot of the trees and paths. Saw a greenish-grey medium sized kangaroo - not a breed I'm familiar with, though I'm not overly familiar with Queensland wildlife. Although initially very beautiful, you quickly notice just how small the area is, and how void it is of any diversity. Nice area to walk to get the feeling of being away, but probably not worth traveling over 5 minutes to get there.

This a norther suburbs gem that few know about. Great for a Dunday afternoon walk in nature without a long drive to get there. Bike trails and walking trails, which link up with the fauna bridge across Hamilton Rd. From there you can hike up to the water tower for great views.

Lots to do here, relaxing environment and toilets open nice and early (may be 24/7?) Good parking and wheelchair access.

Great walk. Not to long.

One of the many small suburban bush reserves that dot Brisbane, and make it such an enjoyable city for early morning walks. Located along the Downfall Creek bikeway which forms part of the Mountains to Mangroves shared pathway corridor. Sealed shared bike and pedestrian paths with branching walking only paths. Stop in at the Downfall Creek Bushland Centre for path information, toilet and BBQ facilities.

Excellent spot conveniently located in Brisbane's northern suburbs, great to get closer to nature while going on bike rides or walks. If you're lucky - like me - you can spot wallabies

Well maintained and designed pathway fully sealed. Entire walk shaded from surrounding trees. Awesome escape into wildlife so close to chermside shopping centre.

Great spot, family love it!

Nice and safe place to have our morning walk. Very quiet and shady, and with beautify bird humming in the surrounding. One of my favourite place to walk with my wife in the morning.

Lovely bushland in the heart of the suburbs. Great environmental education facility and we saw a flying fox colony and a wallaby. Kids had a great time riding bikes, scooters and playing in the playground.

Great walk with a pram. Our toddler loves wildlife spotting and walking the senses trail.

Beautiful walks perfect for the family

Beautiful place to go for walks and spot wallabies.

Good park not much equipment good bbq facilities great for kids parties as it is quite a big place

Peaceful spot for a bbq

Disability toilets and one didability park. Easy wheel chair or walker nature walk.

(Translated by Google) A good place to hike It was a wonderful and wonderful experience to see many bats hanging on the trees. If you do not have a car, you will need to take a bus to the nearest stop and walk for about 10 minutes. If it's hot, you'll have to go through a hill and sweat. (Original) 하이킹하기에 무난한 곳 많은 박쥐들이 나무에 매달려있는 것을 볼 수 있어서 신기하고 좋은 경험이었습니다. 자차가 없으면 버스를 타고 근처 정류장에 내려서 10분정도 걸어야합니다. 날이 더우면 언덕같은 곳을 지나가야해서 땀을 쏟게 될 겁니다

Good playground and nice walking tracks.

Good park and good walks, giod spot for the kids if your looking for something to do one morning. Had a nautre show on while we were there which was an added bonus.

Really clear and easy paths. Good for young kids and parents. Not a challenging walk!

Birthday parties...

Hide out in the bush in the middle of Brisbane.

Great for kids

Pretty nice place to go for a walk, has multiple pathways and also some play equipment and picnic area.

Great for kids, the sensory trail was nice and short for tiny attention spans.
