Picnic Point Lookout and Parkland

Picnic Point Lookout and Parkland Toowoomba is a serene destination that offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Great Dividing Range and beyond.

Spread across 160 acres, this heritage-listed parkland is situated on top of the crest of the mountain and offers a spectacular vista of Main Range and the Lockyer Valley.

Visitors can enjoy stunning escarpment views and well-manicured lawns as they walk through an avenue of mature hoop pines and South Queensland kauris. The park is an ideal place for a picnic, with grassy fields shaded by bunya trees and free barbecues provided. The café and restaurant within the park also offer delicious meals and refreshing beverages with equally stunning views.

Nature lovers and bird watchers can spot exotic birds and take a quiet walk around the park's walking trails. Kids can have a fun-filled time at the playground, and the weekend children's train ride adds to the excitement. For those seeking adventure, the walking trails provide moderate hikes to explore, ranging from an easy stroll to the nearby waterfall to a more challenging one-hour-long Firetail Trail circuit or the challenging Table Top Mountain climb.

The park is open throughout the year, allowing visitors to experience its beauty in every season. Picnic Point Lookout and Parkland is approximately 7km from the Toowoomba CBD and can be reached by major arterial roads. Public transportation is also available, with the nearest bus stop approximately 1km away. Tobruk Memorial Drive provides another access point to the lower section of the park, which also offers impressive vistas, picnics, or a barbecue.
