Why it's worth checking out
Red Rock Gorge Lookout sits in Canberra's south, near Tuggeranong, along the Murrumbidgee River corridor. With 116 reviews behind its 4.7 rating, it's a much-loved viewpoint.
The appeal is dramatic river-gorge scenery — a lookout taking in beautiful outlooks over the Red Rock Gorge and the Murrumbidgee River, a genuine highlight for walkers and view-seekers, a lovely reward on the river's walking tracks. It's a lovely escape into nature close to the city.
Lookouts and tracks have changing conditions, can be exposed and are near the water, so wear suitable footwear, take water and check current details before you head out. Otherwise it's a free, scenic spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection and take your time soaking up the views.
