The fully fenced enclosure is huge, with heaps of room for the dogs to run and play, trees to pee on and props to do tricks on. If they've ever had enough of that, there are great walks through the nearby bush, mangroves, or along the foreshore. We love it.

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.

New Farm Dog Park is a leash-free park where you can take your pooch to frolic with the pedigree…read morepups of the area. It is a fenced area near the Powerhouse car park and faces the river next to the rest of New Farm Park. The facilities in this park are great. There's plenty of shade and seating, as well as water for the dogs and bins to dispose of any nasty surprises. There are a few written and unwritten rules though. For example it is very frowned upon if you can't control your dog. Given that New Farm is largely apartment living there are a lot of small dogs, so when a big dog comes along and starts terrorising the smaller ones, parents get defensive. Also it is completely the owners responsibility to dispose of any doggy doo-doo. Every time I have hung out at New Farm Dog Park (I don't have a dog so I have to live vicariously through my puppy owning friends) it has been so much fun! So long as the dogs all get along, are obedient and well trained, it makes for a manageable outing for all involved. The other plus is that the dogs get so knackered from playing with each other that they usually sleep amazingly following their big adventure. Win!

The New Farm Powerhouse dog park is a beautiful spot in a beautiful location, however the park is…read moresuffering from chronic overuse, despite the maintenance that the council does. It is currently a big dust bowl and a health hazard to dogs, dog owners and local residents. Also, the overcrowding means an increasing incidence of nasty interactions between dogs. It is an unfortunate result of a sharp increase in housing in the local area without an increase in the number of dog parks. Many of the locals now take their dogs to the Spring Hill dog park which is cleaner, greener and offers more interest to the dogs.

Sedgeley Park is a decent sized park off Enoggera Rd in Newmarket…read more There's heaps of kids running around, and with a couple of play grounds and great flat sports areas there's plenty for them to do. There's also an off leash dog park with a shaded table & chairs for owners and a few little 'trick' installations for more flexible puppies. Unfortunately my dog is rather small but believes she's rather big so we tend to avoid it as I never know when she'll bark at a rottweiler for taking her ball. The Newmarket Olympic Pool is on the edge of the park, so it's a great family area all round.

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.

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.
