    What an awesome example of public infrastructure built and maintained for families and community! Was really impressed by the extent of this park after accidentally driving into it while visiting Timaru. Urban planners in Australia could definitely take some notes on this one when designing copy and paste townhouse mega suburbs.

    What an absolutely brilliant park. Well maintained... some good challenges, well utilised, and some thought and real effort has made this a real jewel. Also... the people are generous with salutations and courteous.

    We explored well-maintained, level walking tracks abundant in this area, featuring good picnic areas. We visited this place twice during our trips to Timaru and highly recommend it if you enjoy easy walking spots.

    It's a great park for many activities. However, Timaru local council recently changed, removed and reduced the playgrounds available there, which is very sad for young families, and very disappointed.

    During my stay in Timaru I visited this park a number of times as it has great walking trails. Dogs love it too as I got to meet lots of friendly local people when walking the trails.
