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 👌👍🌟 …
Jardine Park
Poplar Drive, Kelvin Heights, Queenstown 9300
What's here
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.
