Harrington Park Playground

Exploring new playground and found this place. It is great on overcast day. The kids love it here 🩵 …

Very beautiful neighborhood park, and we enjoy every minute spent on this park / playground. It is not a huge park, but the size makes it more enjoyable to families. The playground is especially well maintained and beautiful. There is also a water fountain and a toilet, basic necessities for every park and playground. A local convenient store is also available across the street if needed. The pictures and videos were taken during matariki holiday, so a lot of people come to park to enjoy a sunny day in the middle of winter. Normally, the park is not that busy, so those who need more quiet playing area might want to consider coming here outside of public holidays.

Cool wee park that community can enjoy, plenty for the kids to run around and a playground to explore. There's been a few community events held here for everyone to experience, bring their Families and share memories. Definitely a cool wee park.

very peaceful close to riccarton rd

The park isn't just for kids; there's also a large grass field enough for other activities like playing catch. There's also a cricket lane with a cage around it. A half court for basketball, but I wouldn't recommend going there when the sun is up as it's too bright to see the ring. There are public toilets and drink fountains there, The only thing I didn't like was the rubbish bin being filled for days without being collected, causing some people to just leave their rubbish on the grass... sad 😔 😟 I hope we can keep this place clean to keep it the beautiful park it is!

Could be so nice. Plenty of space, lots of modern equipment. However, it’s just really dirty. Litter everywhere, throughout all the grass areas. Feels like it’s been this way for a while. Rubbish all Over the ground, just grubby. Grass needs a cut, it all just feels like it needs some love. Ticks all the boxes otherwise.

Amazing playground. Walk past it every day on my way to work. Has everything a playground needs plus more. The flying fox is super fun. Great place to take your kids for free. Toilets on site and a dairy opposite the playground for a cheeky ice cream afterwards.

The whole park has had an upgrade since the 2000s. There's a lot of play ground including a flying fox, two sets of swings with baby swings, slides and an obstacle course all safely made too. The park is huge and the path leads into Paeroas small park with kindergarten and Stand crescent adjacent to Riccarton road.

Nice playground. As we live in Riccarton near the mall, it is more convenient having a walk up to this park rather than up to Hagley Park. Not as big as the latter, but still very nice for a walk. The flying fox is rather dangerous anyway... A bit too high...

Great playground for the kids they really enjoyed the space
