This close‑knit community of just under 4,000 people offers a genuine slice of Australian suburban river life. Spend your mornings kayaking on calm waters, cycling the riverfront paths, or picnicking in shaded parks where cockatoos and kookaburras provide the soundtrack. The local Riverhills Marketplace has a friendly supermarket, bakery, and a weekend farmers’ market with seasonal produce and artisan crafts. History buffs can explore the 19th‑century St. Mark’s Church and the heritage‑listed Riverhills Ferry, a cable‑driven punt still crossing the river. The nearby Brisbane Koala Bushlands and White’s Hill Reserve are perfect for bushwalking and spotting kangaroos. Despite its sleepy vibe, Riverhills is only a 20‑minute drive from Brisbane’s city centre, making it an ideal base for families, digital nomads seeking quiet, and anyone craving nature without sacrificing urban access. The river sunset from the Rivertrail is unforgettable – grab a takeaway coffee from the local café and watch the sky turn peach.",[10,13],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","000",{"key":14,"value":12},"Ambulance",[16,19,22,25,28,31,34,37,40,43,46,49],{"key":17,"value":18},"Do I need a visa?","Most visitors need an Australian visa; eVisitor (free) for EU citizens, ETA for others.
