Brisbane Botanic Gardens Mt Coot-tha

Lovely place to go and wonder around for a few hours on a Sunday arvy. Smart people even brought picnics and found a lovely spot to relax.

The Bonsai collection was a highlight for me. My kids were completely baffled by the staghorns in the Fern House.

I will need another visit to check out the ducks. Next time,....

Amazing botanic gardens, so big you can wander for hours, many distinct zones, beautifully laid out, and Free is nice. Desert section is beautiful, but only the tip of the iceberg. Can bring a picnic, come back again and again. Bonsai house is 👌

Beautiful place for nice fresh air, family and friends activities, relaxing and add you information about the nature life, trees and flowers. And if you lucky like we were you might find something special like events. We even watch fireworks that day 😍😄 what a special day👏🏻.

If you like botanical garden, then this place is a must to visit. It has various plants and a planetarium on site. Very big so it definitely will take a while to explore the place. It's very easy to get to the garden, you can drive or use public transport. It's free too! So no reason not to visit.

Really beautiful botanical gardens. They are very well maintained and admission is free. There are quite a lot of cool plants and you can really relax. I can only recommend a visit.

Beautifully laid out. The plants were amazing! You can tell the people who work here care.

It was busy so we parked a bit of a distance away. It didnt feel busy in the park.

Lots of options for children to explore, play and learn. Toilet facilities and water bubblers easy to find.

Really great day!

A beautiful place to spend the day exploring & enjoying a picnic in serenity. Recommend picking up a map from the Visitor Centre. We explored all sections by foot but there are car parks throughout if you’d like to get to a specific part. There is a lot to see! Wheelchair friendly concrete paths but also sloping in some sections can be difficult if you have a manual wheelchair. A very photogenic place. We enjoyed seeing wildlife plus art pieces & signage throughout. The cafe serves great coffee!
