Mt Coot-tha Reserve

Highlight • Forest

Mt Coot-tha Reserve is a large natural area on the western edge of Brisbane known for its bushland, scenic lookouts, and popular attractions, including the Brisbane Botanic Gardens and summit precinct. There is an extensive network of walking and cycling tracks in the reserve that wind through dry eucalypt forest and pockets of subtropical vegetation, connecting key areas across the mountain. With shaded bushland, abundant wildlife, and occasional views of the city, it offers plenty of options for outdoor recreation to immerse yourself in nature.

Kokoda Track

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This well-maintained track through the Mt Coot-tha Reserve is a great option for those looking for a bit of a challenge near the city. The pathway isn't technically challenging but there is some steep terrain that will definitely test your strength and endurance. Although the path is partially shaded you'll still need to bring sun protection and plenty of water. The tree cover is also home to a wide variety of birdlife, so be sure to look up while hiking through the forest.
