Jardine Park is a small playground tucked into a recreation reserve on the Kelvin Peninsula in Kelvin Heights, Queenstown, built around a single flying fox rather than a full equipment set. It suits school age children who come specifically for the flying fox rather than families looking for a big play session.

    Another off the beaten track for tourists sight. Awesomely 👌 beautiful and gorgeous! You can even get a whiff of manuka in the air as they bushes are growing wild around us. If you drive its easy to get there and worth it if you are into scenery and nature 👌👍🌟 …

    Fantastic spot that only the locals know. It has a huge dog park, tennis courts, playground and croquet club. But the best part is the new Disk Golf course. It's an intermediate course but really fun.

    Title: A Hidden Gem in Queenstown Jardine Park in Queenstown, New Zealand, is simply an oasis of tranquility. With its verdant greenery, well-maintained amenities, and fantastic views, it offers a unique blend of natural beauty and thoughtful design that makes every visit truly memorable. The park impresses with its diverse range of attractions. From picnic spots highlighted by the enthralling mountain backdrop, engaging birdlife that adds a dynamic touch to the serene environment, to the trails that crisscross the park - every detail contributes to a wholesome outdoor experience. The children's playground is a safe and inviting space for the children while the expansive open fields are perfect for a great family picnic or a casual game of football or frisbee. More active visitors can appreciate the beautifully maintained walking and biking trails. What strikes me the most about Jardine Park is its immaculate cleanliness and efforts towards preserving the environment. The park administration ensures their space is habitable for local wildlife while providing exceptional facilities for visitors. Jardine Park represents a proud attribute of Queenstown's beauty and hospitality, a must-visit for locals and tourists alike. My family and I have made countless memories here, and I highly recommend this park to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat amidst the naturally charming Queenstown. A five-star experience every time!

    Beautiful spot for a wander. The disc golf course is 9 challenging holes. That really test your accuracy (and abilities to spot your disc's in the bushes)

    Lovely spot to spend a few hours. Picnic tables, playground, signposted walking tracks, spectacular views, clean toilet facilities, drinking fountain. Bring shelter if hot as some areas have little shade.

    Great field for the kids to play in and love the area to walk the dogs and let the kids run through the grass. Shame the flying fox has been taken down for now but the park is great for little ones to play
