A fantastic sight in Brisbane is definitely the Kangaroo Point Cliffs. Like the South Bank Parklands, the cliffs are located on the other side of the Brisbane River and were formerly an old quarry.

Now, a small park has been built at the top of the cliffs, offering fantastic views of the Brisbane skyline. The view from here of the river and the skyscrapers is phenomenal!

Note: You can easily walk along the river from the South Bank Parklands to the cliffs – a lovely walk that's well worth it!

View of Brisbane Skyline

Highlight • Viewpoint

This viewpoint looks across the Brisbane River toward the modern towers that define the city’s central business district, along with landmarks including the Story Bridge and South Bank. The skyline rises in clean lines of glass and steel, often reflected in the water, with green riverbank parklands softening the urban edge. It’s a popular place to pause for photos, especially in the evening, when the changing light makes the buildings glow across the river.

Opened in 2001, the Goodwill Bridge is a pedestrian and cycle crossing over the Brisbane River linking South Bank with the city near the Botanic Gardens.
