Queens Park

Queens Park contains significant cultural heritage values not only for Ipswich but for Queensland.  Queens Park was the first park to be developed in Queensland, first being surveyed in 1842. Its original architectural design dates back to 1862 and is perhaps Ipswich's most well know landmark. Visitors to the park will experience old world charm with modern day conveniences.

Its close proximity to Ipswich Central allows for easy access to shady gardens and a relaxing lunch time outing.

Features of the park include extensive formalised garden beds, a Japanese-styled garden, a nature Centre, Children's play facilities, Bush House, Bush Chapel, several sporting Clubs and a Kiosk.

Opening Hours

Queens Park is open 24hours per day though no lighting restricts most activities to daylight hours.  Contact (07) 3810 6666 for opening hours of Nature Centre & Nerima Gardens as they vary with the seasons.
