Parks in Brisbane | Brisbane Parks Map

Brisbane Parks Map

The following is a Map of all Parks in Brisbane and Playgrounds that we consider to be worthy of a visit. When you click on one of the Parks in Brisbane you will find that you are taken to a more detailed listing of the playground or reserve. We have also included playgrounds and things to do in Logan in this map with some of the best playgrounds on the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast being added soon.

Here are some things we love about Playgrounds and Parks in Brisbane!

  • Most are nice and shady or they have shade sails
  • Many cater for big Brisbane Kids as well as little ones
  • We have lots of all ability playgrounds making Parks in Brisbane accessible to everyone

PLAYGROUND APP

Check out this awesome Brisbane Parks App that has mapped over 1500 parks in Brisbane and reviewed them for you! You can search for them on itunes under “Playgrounds in Brisbane”. We dont own this app- but we are working with them to provide you with follow up discussion and  support about playgrounds in Brisbane through our facebook page. We believe this APP is the best thing to happen in Brisbane for a long time!

SMALLER PLAYGROUNDS

We focus on what we do well- The best in Brisbane playgrounds. We do however acknowledge the important of Smaller Playgrounds, PARKS, Dog parks and Skate parks and thats why we invited BrisParks to join the Brisbane Kids Family. BrisParks is a website that reviews EVERYTHING in outdoor recreation- so head on over and check them out for Parks today. BrisParks Website

Here are some things we think can still be improved about Playgrounds and Parks in Brisbane

  • Our Brisbane Parks Map has a a combination of fenced and unfenced playgrounds. Parks in Brisbane need more fencing. We aren’t just talking about all abilities playgrounds but all WOW playgrounds. The investment is an investment in the safety of our children.
  • Big playgrounds that have BBQ’s should have toilets- do people really picnic, eat, drink and not need to go to the bathroom?

Our Brisbane Park Map contains your top 5 playgrounds and parks in Brisbane

  1. Kalinga Park Clayfield
  2. Lower Moora Park Shorncliffe

    I wish they didn’t have those open (jump off) sections on all playgrounds. Or atleast made them more difficult to get to so older kids could still use them and I didn’t have a heart attack exert time my 18 month old runs for them!

    I might have missed it in the listing above, but one park we have found that is truly awesome is Guyatt Park, next to the ferry terminal. It has a beautiful view over the river, particularly at sunset, and there are two playgrounds, an oval, toilets and barbeques. Both playgrounds are shaded, one for larger kids and one for the littlies, although neither are fenced. Can’t recommend it highly enough, a great place to go for a picnic or barbie while the kids amuse themselves on the equipment. There are even a few shops about 10 minutes walk away for an icecream or takeaway dinner if you are too lazy to cook a barbie!

    I know Landsborough isn’t in Brisbane but it has the most fantastic park ever.

      Agree with the Pioneer park in Landsborough, it’s fantastic and worth a day trip.

    There is an awesome park in Calamvale. The Calamvale District Park on Formby Street Calamvale. It is a large park set away from the road with fantastic play equipment. The park has a flying fox, a huge slide and more. There are also BBQ’s and public ammenities.

      yeah, that’s a superb park. Also, there’s a great little park at Perkins Street in Calamvale. Has beautiful spreading trees for climbing, lots of shade, plus equipment for young and old kids (and parents, too). No toilets though but good for a short stay.

    Just spent the morning at New Farm park and can’t believe how good it was. Safe, well designed and loads to do. We found it from your site as we are on holidays. Thank you!

    I wonder why there are so many more playgrounds on the northside than on the southside. Are more families living north?
