Simpson Falls near Mount Coot-tha provides an excellent base for Brisbane families seeking outdoor recreation close to the city. The large grassed areas accommodate ball games and picnics, while multiple barbecue options with water and toilet facilities support group gatherings. Well-maintained walking trails connect to Mount Coot-tha's extensive network, with maps available from the Summit lookout. Wildlife abounds throughout the area, and creek exploration offers alternatives to bushwalking. Covered shelters and clean facilities make this a reliable choice, though parking can become competitive during peak times. The falls themselves are best visited after recent rainfall for optimal flow.
