Brisbane

Killarney Glen, within the Scenic Rim of Queensland and part of Qld National Parks is such a beautiful spot. After a steep walk down (feels steeper going back) you come across a wonderful pebble filled creek and azure waters flowing into a heart shaped pool. Here you'll find repellers, overseas tourists and even young backpackers in their underwear because they forgot their swimmers. I just wanted to find it and take a few photos. Take snacks and water. There are facilities nearby. #queensland #hiking
