布里斯班New Farm从开发早期就是一片地价昂贵的豪宅区，沿江也曾经成为羊毛店集中区域，羊毛业衰落后，也曾经多年成为美国和澳大利亚海军基地。现在江边都开发成了豪华住宅区，以紫花灿烂的New Farm公园闻名。
从市中心可以搭乘免费的CityHopper轮渡抵达New Farm的悉尼街渡口，每半小时一班，整点和半点从悉尼街渡口发船到市中心。悉尼街渡口北面有江上木栈道可以步行前往市中心，顺南边沿江公园可以抵达New Farm Park，每年10月前后紫色鲜花遍布公园。
江边和公园有很多美丽的鸟类，在生育季节出于自卫本能，愤怒的小鸟可能对人类发起俯冲攻击，通常从头顶或耳边近距离飞过。大家最好戴帽子、眼睛自我保护，不要主动激怒小鸟。如遇攻击也不要跑，但应尽快离开该地区。
从布里斯班市区植物园江边眺望对岸，可以看到一大片悬崖，不时还有人攀岩，那正是Kangaroo Point Cliffs Park。
布里斯班CBD的Eagle Street Pier可以搭免费的CityHopper轮渡直达对岸的Kangaroo Point Cliffs Park。也可以步行通过Story Bridge抵达公园。
Kangaroo Point Cliffs Park的江边有长长的人行步道与自行车道，还有很多休息的凉亭和饮水机，也有厕所。

The Rainforest and Fern Gully offers the chance to explore a subtropical misty rainforest in the centre of Brisbane!
