MOUNT COOT-THA FOREST REVIEWS

Great workout and running trail. It’s tricky at various spots so caution is needed to navigate safely. Especially up closer to mount Cootha summit. Very nice forest with lots of birds singing for your hearing pleasure.

Me and friends set up a yearly hiking and last year we tried the Mount Coot-Tha Forest. This place are incredable the view above are very calming and its nice to breathe the fresh air. Nature lover will appreciate this kind of view.

DAISY HILL CONSERVATION PARK REVIEWS

Lovely place. Easy access with good ramps. Very educational and easy to read information signs. There was nicely spaced seating for people with mobility concerns. It was lovely to be able to get up close to koalas, of course there is no patting for health reasons. Good for kids and adults.

I highly recommend this place. Its great for family day out with young children. They have plenty of picnic areas, lots of toilets, even for wheelchairs. There are bike riding tracks and horse riding tracks. The koala building are my children's favourite part. It's very educational for kids.

Educational, lovely setting, beautiful seeing the koalas and bushwalking, BBQs.

TOOHEY FOREST PARK REVIEWS

Gorgeous piece of forest in the south side of the city. Most paths suitable for bikes, prams and people who use wheelchairs, though some paths are steep, so that's a consideration. Dogs permitted on leash. Lots of friendly people, but not crowded. We were lucky enough to see a koala.

Fantastic forest to take the dogs for a walk with numerous trails. Great wildlife and if you’re lucky you might spot a koala!

Lovely quiet little piece of paradise in the city. I like to go for an easy walk and try to spot some bugs, fungi, lichens.
