Story Bridge

The Story Bridge is a heritage-listed steel cantilever bridge spanning the Brisbane River, linking Fortitude Valley and Kangaroo Point. Opened in 1940, it offers distinctive Art Deco details and panoramic city views, especially at sunrise and dusk. Visitors can walk or cycle across for free, or book the Story Bridge Adventure Climb for a guided ascent to the summit. Nearby, riverside parks, bars, and the Howard Smith Wharves precinct make it easy to combine a visit with dining and leisure. It’s a worthwhile stop for architecture fans, photographers, and anyone seeking a classic Brisbane outlook.
