Toowong Cemetery Guided Tours

Guided Tours

Friends of Toowong Cemetery run 11 different guided walking tours each year.

Guided tours are free but donations are appreciated to help us continue our work.

Tours are on the first Sunday of each month (February to December) from 10:30am to 12:00.

There's no need to book, just meet under the flagpole in Canon Garland Place at the Toowong Cemetery. Parking is available inside the cemetery.
