Walkabout Creek Discovery Centre

This is such a fantastic place to chill out in nature and soak in the gorgeous views. I had a blast kayaking there. It was seriously awesome! Plus, the prices are totally affordable, and there's plenty of parking available. It's also super convenient because it's close to the city.

Beautiful place to explore and spend time at. Sadly the kayaking was closed the day we went but there were no notices on the website stating this, so a little disappointed as that's what we went for. Had a nice hike around the area instead though.

What a beautiful spot.
We did the 5km loop with a group of adults and kids. Took us just over an hour and a half and was a great walk for the kids. Cool ro see some wildlife too. There are plenty more walks available also.
Also looked to have mountain bike trails too.
There were many people out on the lake, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. People were also making use of the swimming area too.
The Cafe area looked busy and will have a better look at that, next time we visit.
Awesome to have a little piece of nature like that so close to the city.

A must visit spot.

It was a good place for a bush walk. We had a plan to rent a kayak there but due to the low water level, you couldn't use kayaks. The only negative point of the park is the lack of water refills.

I had so much fun on my solo trip to the reservoir and to the wildlife centre. Such cheap entry and really unique native wildlife I had never seen before. The perfect day out :)

Great walk around the lake, long track or short up to you. Cheap entry to the discovery centre and nice array of native animals to see. Wonderfully nice and informative staff. Kayaking and nice swimming spot

Staff were very welcoming and helpful. I asked to do the wildlife show but as I was the only one, instead a ranger gave me a personal tour of the animals including feeding the lizards.
They don’t have a huge number of animals but they also charge very little ($5-9) to go through the wildlife centre so definitely worth it.
Lunch at the cafe was excellent (toasted chicken pesto sandwich) and very reasonably priced.

Whilst it is on the smaller side I’d definitely recommend. It was great for my 3 year old as I find he gets a bit overwhelmed at large zoos and things like it when there’s so much to look at. The price to enter is so cheap and I love that you can come and go as much as you want through out the day. My favourite part was definitely the platypus it was great to see such a special animal up close

Great place to hike, swim or kayak and the coffee is not bad either👌🏻

Visiting from the UK, this was our first visit and we'll be sure to come again before we return home. A delightful wildlife section, with a rather sociable Emu. We didn't get to do the walks. That's for our next visit.

What a hidden gem! This is such a fantastic, affordable place to go for the day! Only about $8 entry for an adult and you get to see so many cute animals!! They are all well looked after too. There's a few activities you can do down by the water too such as swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding for a small fee. A great day out for all ages!

The venue was amazing, parking was easy and was very easy to find. Had a friend's birthday there and the view from the balcony overlooking the animals was just awesome. I saw so many native animals and a few I had never seen.

Staff were excellent and very helpful when I ordered drinks and coffee. Will be going back for a more detailed look around the area. Will be worth the time.

Lovely creek, landscape and lagoon. Recommended for a small walk to relax. Defo try paddle or kayaking (I fell twice into the water, we had strong winds!! Bring a change of clothes just in case). Price is fine, 25$ per person.

This is a beautiful place to visit. Just up behind Enoggera is this amazing bus lake and lake. There is a massive function room with kitchen for events. Bush tracks everywhere to explore. The water is beautiful with kayaks and paddle boards to hire and explore the lake. Great place for kids with lots of greenery to play in.

The wildlife zoo was small and lovely. The Wombat, tree kangaroo, baby crocodile and lizard were so cute. The staff were friendly and very helpful.

Great spot for a swim, some shade, bbq and launch a kyack

Nice place to visit, if you just want to appreciate nature!

Lovely place for a swim or kayaking or stand up paddle

It seems like a great place to bring kids of any age with a wide range of activities. There's various hiking trials which seem very accessible (paved or gravel with minimum steps) and very in length. The reservoir for swimming and paddle craft (which was temporarily closed to swimmers from the recent floods). Paddle craft could be rented as well. There were also bike trials and even a food court and exhibit.

Toilet facilities can be found near the admissions office.

Really great to have such a beautiful natural place so close to the city.
The walk around the resevoir is great, also good swimming and kayaking opportunities.
