Brisbane Things to Do Tips by Beach_Girl_Aust

This is what I try to do at least once a week or once a fortnight.
It is great to throw on your blades or skates and spend the day skating along the Brisbane River at Southbank.

It is free (unless you do not have blades). But you can hire them from locations along the River from $4.00 (depending how long you want them etc).

The paths are all flat and it is such a beautiful and relaxing way to see the city.

Here is a real local tip:
If you are driving into the city it can be really expensive to park there all day, so what I do is go pay for a $5.00 movie ticket at Southbank Cinema and I get to park all day for free :)

Or you can park in the actual Southbank Parking for free if you spend $30 or more at lunch in Southbank (dont forget to validate your ticket!! lol)

Another one of my favourite things to do is go to Mount Cootha. But not just to see the views of the city.
You can bike ride through some really nice forests. There are tracks for beginners and pros, and you can go for as long or quick as you like.

If you can't or don't want to hire a bike, walking is another great option!

I also suggest that you go to your local supermarket before heading off on your journey. Lunch at Mount Cootha is a little expensive if your on a budget (because the only places to eat there are at the lookout, full of tourists). So, if you pack your own yummy lunch, you'll save money and be able to have a nice picnic lunch in the forest all by yourself :)
