Introduction
Kangaroo Point is a peninsula on the east bank of the Brisbane River, known for its riverside volcanic cliffs. These ochre rock walls are Brisbane's popular outdoor rock-climbing spot and a great vantage point overlooking the city skyline. The clifftop park is an open green space facing the city centre across the river, while the Story Bridge spans alongside, making it a classic spot to capture the Brisbane River, city high-rises and the Story Bridge in one frame, especially at sunset and after dark when the lights come on. A riverside promenade runs below the cliffs for walking and cycling, and the rock walls are lit at night, a favourite place for Brisbanites to exercise and enjoy the city night view.
