About this audio guide
This guide to the Brisbane Riverwalk follows the boardwalk's own history between the city centre and New Farm, from the flood of two thousand eleven that tore the original apart to the salvage yard at Pinkenba. You'll hear about a tugboat skipper and a runaway two-hundred-metre chunk of walkway, plus where salvaged pieces resurfaced years later. It is a story about what this infrastructure is actually made of, and what it cost. Worth pausing partway across, where the river runs beneath your feet.
