A Kookaburra at Calamvale District Park. You can walk in this small creek. Kookaburras are the most common creature.
Probably, not a must visit place. But if you stay somewhere near Calamvale, it might be worth to have a little walk in this park.
Rocks Riverside Park is an old cement factory that has been converted into a recreational area and walking trail. There's public BBQ facilities, picnic tables, washrooms and a playground. The footpath stretches along Brisbane River and is a beautiful place to run. There's parking at the park but you could also walk here from Oxley train station (about 20 minutes).

8/10 Very Good! (755 reviews)
First time I’ve stayed here where I haven’t found it excellent. Room was run down with loose taps and fittings. This ‘better’ room was actually worse than the ‘cheaper’ options. But from past stays I’d still go back.
