👍👍 Best View on the Gold Coast. Perfect for a walk around the Point, great coffee shops, pubs, bars within walking distance. I am sure it's one of the most photographed places on the coast. Nothing better then grabbing a coffee from Nook Coffee Shop (Best coffee on the Gold Coast) and walking up to...

Simpson Falls Picnic Area

👍👍 An enjoyable short walk up to the falls. Less than an hour at a very leisurely pace, depending on where parked. Not too steep and some nice views of the city from the bridge at the top. Dogs allowed on leash, and there’s plenty of BBQ facilities, benches and toilets not too far from the car park.

👍 Open fields, shady areas, small playground, some covered/sheltered gazebos. Good park for a picnic (I mean, it’s in the name!). The car park has plenty of space. There are 6 swings, 1 of them appropriate for toddlers. Not so nice public toilet, and some older BBQ areas.

👍 Brisbane City Council is making a major upgrade to Forest Lake Park. The water is cleaner and more water fowls are coming back. I spend some time taking photos on the water's edge as well as take a daily afternoon walk around the lake.

👍👍 Ive been going here for close on 40yrs now. Its great to have a woodfired bbq rather than hohum gas bbqs. They provide wood most of the time but if you want to be safe bring a few bits of your own. There are bbqs scattered throughout the area and most have a shed with seat and table. Theres toilets...

Springbrook National Park Forest Park picnic area

😐 🚨 IMPORTANT: Picnic area no longer exists 🚨 Stunning area with a beautiful place to swim, however the name is very misleading as there are no more picnic tables, BBQs, toilets etc. Arrived and were very confused and thinking we were missing something obvious! Shouldn't be called "picnic area" any...

👍 Nice location with a couple of tables. No bbq's. A quick loop walk to the large strangler fig is easy for most people and small kids. A longer walk to Jolly's Lookout is worth it especially if you're there early morning. Lots of interesting wildlife and flora. Plenty of shade to keep you cool. The o...

👍 A nice short walk in the Karawatha Forest Park (about 20-30minutes, 2km from carpark - depending which entry you select) where you can sit in a permanent park style bench and table and enjoy a picnic, or just a short rest before turning around on a different trail back home.

👍👍 Nice park with plenty of outdoor space, I was warned about the snakes but I didn't think my kids would get bit. It sucks they just wanted to play in the bush but there it was, a 5ft+ Peter Dutton. Luckily I had a snake bite kit in my car.
