Best Things to do in Camp Hill

Last updated: May 05, 2025

Brisbane's inner eastern suburb of Camp Hill has grown from the 1870's when one of its first settlers made their home atop Whites Hill to a charming sought after place to live, with its funky cafes and eateries, French wine bar, antique centre, bush walks and one of Brisbane's best kids playgrounds.

With a mix of architecture from Queenslanders to art deco cottages and quirky arts and craft homes through to postwar houses, there's something here to suit everyone whilst its proximity to the CBD adds to its popularity.
