Nearly all of Brisbane exercises here in the evenings because of the stunning city views, the parkland with bbq areas, the stairs up to the lookout. It's a great atmosphere and you can walk right around to Southbank and grab a bite or see what's on there. It's also possible to do a circuit of the city via the foot bridge and it's a great way to soak up the city.
