Denmark Hill Water Tower Lookout

The Denmark Hill Water Tower Lookout is a unique landmark situated within the Denmark Hill Conservation Reserve in Ipswich.

It offers panoramic views of the city and countryside from its viewing platform atop the five-storey staircase. Visitors can enjoy spectacular vistas of the Ipswich region and the four mountain ranges - the D'Aguilar, Teviot, Little Liverpool, and Great Dividing Ranges.

Climbing the five-storey staircase is an adventure in itself, leading to a viewing platform that provides breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. On clear days, visitors can see as far as the coastal ranges, about 80 kilometers away. In the evening, the city lights create a mesmerizing spectacle of light.

The Denmark Hill Water Tower Lookout is open all year round, but the best time to visit is during the dry season between April and October. The weather is pleasant, and the clear skies make it easier to appreciate the scenic surroundings. To reach the Denmark Hill Water Tower Lookout, it is about 4.5 kilometers from the Ipswich CBD. Visitors can drive or take public transport. By car, take Brisbane Street to Marsden Parade, then to Chermside Road. The tower is located at number 15 Chermside Road. By public transport, bus number 510 runs from Ipswich station to Denmark Hill Conservation Reserve.
