Picnic Point, Toowoomba, Historic site and lookout point in Toowoomba, Australia.
Located at 162-202 Tourist Road, Picnic Point spans 65 hectares along the Great Dividing Range, offering views of Table Top Mountain and Lockyer Valley.
The site was designated as a public recreation area in 1885, initially covering 38 acres before expanding through acquisitions by Toowoomba City Council.
