Kangaroo Point Green Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Kangaroo Point Green Bridge is a pedestrian-only bridge spanning the Brisbane River. This new bridge links the city center with Kangaroo Point and was completed at the end of 2024. Part of the city's "Green Bridges" project, designed to reduce car use and, as a bonus, offers super-scenic views of the skyline, cliffs, and river.

Jacaranda tree at New Farm Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

Set along the river in New Farm Park, this jacaranda is part of a wider network of trees that have become closely tied to Brisbane’s identity. Introduced in the nineteenth century, jacarandas now mark the shift into spring, when their purple blooms briefly transform parks and streets across the city. Outside of bloom, the tree still stands out for its wide canopy and position along the water, offering shade and open views across the river.

Newstead Park

Highlight • Rest Area

Newstead Park is a waterfront park with some interesting historical stops. In the middle of the park, the Newstead House, built in 1845, is the oldest surviving home in the area and is now a museum. For a nature-based historical stop, check out the Old Fig Tree, which has a plaque explaining its massive size and age. This is a great stop on the Lores Bonney Riverwalk, with public restrooms and plenty of places to take a break on the grass and soak up the sun.

Goodwill Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

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. Its sleek, cable-stayed design and gentle curves make it a popular, traffic-free route with expansive river and skyline views. The bridge also hosts small lookout bays and often features public art and lighting displays during city events.
