Great place for bring your kids to do some exercise, there are running area, playgrounds and even a maze! Clean n tidy area indeed.. lots of free parking area, clean toilet near the karori play center. But I think the maze area should be repainted. When blooming, really love to sit down in the bench under the pohutawa trees in the corner and enjoying the view

This park gets hammered by wind so needs work to be safe and safely usable for athletics and footy games...even though it is not the worst pitch in Wellington

Great location in central of Karori. The playground has a section for kids and another for toddlers. Some kids will love the maze nearby where they can play hide-and-seek. A big ground for sports as well. Seem not to have a toilet

Bit muddy when soggy and loose/slippery but not terrible (and better than other grounds). Note that there is an astro-turf cricket pitch in the middle of the football ground. Change facilities and toilets weren't great.

Playground is not a patch on the old fort structure beloved by my kids in the 1980's & 90's, but grandkids like it well enough. Especially getting "lost" in the maze (which is the only thing left from the original playground).

Toilets are clean. Showers take time to warm up so hang in there. Although, push button showers don't last long before you have to push it again (continuosly 😕☹) …
