Best Things to do in Camp Hill

Updated: May 03, 2026

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 as well as Brisbane's last remaining heritage-listed tram tracks,
