It's a romantic spot to watch the sunset, with a crowd gathering and applauding as the sun dips behind the silhouette of the mountains. I highly recommend visiting, especially if you're staying in the Mount Tamborine area.
A beautiful spot for both sunrise and sunset! Be cautious when driving after dark, the roads can be quite dark.
Spectacular, expansive views, plenty of room for sitting and picnicking. Just don't bring anything that can roll, like a ball. You might never see it again as the hill incline is very steep. Not for those with acute fears of heights. Wind sock to indicate breeze status. Excellent spot for airborne sport, but probably a few too many sightseers at times.
Visit regularly for sunset it's always amazing but very busy on weekends with tourists. I am very grateful to have this as a local spot to come.
One of my favourite lookouts!
Great place for the picknick, meditation or just enjoying the moment. Be careful, there is a hill, so don’t let babies/small children be alone.

Driving past on a Sunday and how lucky we were! Gorgeous blue skies to watch the many hang gliders over the stunning view.
Great spot to watch the sunset and the southern skies. Lots of people enjoying the hillside spot, public toilets here too.
Worth a stop if you are in the area for the view. Parking can be busy (there is more parking on the grass on the other side of the road), but the views are worth stopping for.
The park itself is largely just a grass area with a monument and sculpture which is quite steep off the top and probably where the other name 'Hang Glider Launch and Lookout' comes from aside from Robert Sowter Park. We arrived to quite a few people there who I expect were waiting on the sunset as this faces westward.
Probably a nice place for a picnic and to admire the sunset on a nice night, but I expect it will get cool there.
