Eildon Hill Reservoir
Brisbane City Council Local Walks
Eildon Hill Reservoir sits at the summit of Eildon Hill, which is a strategic location for viewing the City, Moreton Bay, the Border Ranges, Cunningham's Gap, Taylor and D'Aguilar Range.
Recently a new lookout has been build as a project to improve the great places in the suburb, make them safer and connect them with the communities, family and friends. There are walking trails on the steep hill of the reservoir, which connect Windsor and Wilston suburbs. The Loop walk is upgraded as well.
