Fantastic park with lots of modern equipment and a basketball hoop. Esp for 2yrs and over, because it's not fenced. The only gripe is no toilet or drinking fountain.

Nicely put together. Also very conveniently placed next to a car park. Only defect, a tad too close to a main road.

Great playground that's let down by a lack of toilets. This leads to adventurous children sneaking into the trails for relief.

One of our most favourite playgrounds in all of wellington. Great for kids of all ages. Just a pity there is no loo nearby
