What a great little park…read more Firstly there is a sheltered kids playground which caters for all ages. Just next to that is a barbecue area complete with tables, benches and gas barbecue which is also covered. On the other side if the playground is a dog run. And what a dog run for pooch. The fenced outer circle is an obstacle course for Fido. The inner fence circle is a mini oval which is the off-leash area. All of this is next to the Woodside rugby and soccer oval. Whoever planned this deserves five stars!

Such a great dog park! My boyfriend and I travel most of the year and when we come back to Aus, I…read morehave a hard time finding dog parks for our puppy's here. This park is huge! There is not a small or large dog park but my puppy's don't seem to mind. This park has a puppy play ground, poop bags/bins, water and 2 gates to make it easy to take your dog on/off the lead.

Damn, this is one fancy suburban park. They don't make parks like this on the south side. Since…read morebecoming a full time mummy, my sister has become an expert on Brisbane parks. She could tell you which park is suitable for different age group, which park has the cleanest BBQ areas or has the most shade or has easy parking or has the best slides. It's a real eye opener tagging along and watching how kids interact with the playground. Whoever designed the Hamilton playground has thought of everything. There are three different designated play areas. One area is clearly for toddlers because the steps are low enough for them to climb up and there are simple slides and seesaws low to the ground. There's an adventure style playground for the older kids (and short adults like me!) with a climbing net and flying foxes. What I was most impressed with was the miniature road set. My nephew was worried that it was a 'real road' and pronounced in a sing song voice that I should get off the road. Once I explained it was a 'pretend road', he happily raced around the track on a pretend motorbike breaking all the road rules but at least giving way to pedestrians. There's an off-leash dog area attached to the park. This looks like gambolling doggy fun with an obstacle course for the bigger dogs. And when you're tired of running around, pop across the road to Portside for a coffee and cake.

I take my dogs here most afternoon's between 4:30pm-5:30pm. Lots of lovely and friendly people…read morebring their dogs here. Lots of regular visitors. Has water, poop bags, seating that is mostly under shelter and is fully fenced. There is a designated area for small pooches to run free as well. Massive grassed area outside the off leash area plus a playground for the kids. Nice place to visit.

This is a great off-leash dog park, a popular place on weekends and public holidays, packed with…read moredogs and their owners. It's right by a beach, which is zoned as off-leash too. It's not a particularly attractive beach, but it's fine for dogs. I went there with my friend's two very energetic cattle dogs on a day when it had previously been raining and they loved the huge puddles. There are ramps and tunnels for those dogs/owners who are interested, a shelter with a picnic table and a number of park benches. Depending on where you live, the Nudgee off-leash dog park is a little far out, but it makes for a good outing, particularly with the beach there.

All free with amazing entertainment and educational presentations. Good food, too. Children's play areas, benches along the river to be able to just sit, talk, watch the river traffic and wildlife. You can board the free ferry boats to other areas of Brisbane from here. Swim from the beaches, or walk through the beautiful gardens. Or, take a nap on the expansive, warm grass . . . . . Christmas lighting etc. is indescribable. You should try a 'warm weather' Christmas and New Year start.

How anyone could give this less than five stars is beyond me. The substantial length of riverfront…read morespace includes several artificial pools, even one with a beach (you wouldn't want to go in the river anyway), a rainforest walk, some kind of Nepali temple, a ferris wheel, docks for boats, and about a thousand other things. You'll spend some money if you go to one of the nearby eateries, for sure, or on parking if you drive, but the place itself is free and open. Split bike and pedestrian walkways and ample transit access make this area a frequent stop for commuters and tourists, and numerous attractions abound nearby, but here's the really good news: it's in Brisbane. Brisbane is not that crowded. So, unlike some of the public parks and water-based attractions in the really major cities (sorry, Brisbanites), you can actually find some space here, even during peak hours in the summer. The only reason not to come is if you've run out of sunscreen.
