Why it's worth checking out
The Kangaroo Point Cliffs Lookout is one of Brisbane's most iconic vantage points, with an excellent 4.7-star average from more than 470 reviews.
Perched atop the cliffs, the lookout offers sweeping views across the Brisbane River to the city skyline — a free, postcard-perfect spot that's a genuine highlight. That big tally of feedback reflects how much locals and visitors love it.
Kangaroo Point sits just across the river from the CBD, with the riverwalk and abseiling cliffs close by. The lookout suits a scenic stop, a photo over the city or a relaxed moment outdoors — and it's at its best around sunset and after dark, when the skyline lights up.
