Kell Park Playground

Kell Park in Albany is known for its carved wooden sculptures and timber structures, with a multi play structure and slide, bowl rockers, a flying fox running from a timber ship deck, and a spring toy set on a bark surface. It's a distinctive stop for families who want more character than a standard climb and slide set.

Equipment

The timber ship deck and its flying fox are the standout piece, with carved elements including a giant throne and climbing tower adding to the character. Bowl rockers and a spring toy suit younger children, and tree shade covers much of the equipment, with an additional shade sail over the large slide.

History and Cultural

Kell Park has remnants of an old orchard from when Albany was a market gardening district, and its carved timber sculptures reflect a tradition of creative public art in Albany Village. The 2.8 kilometre Albany Village Path loops around the park and nearby reserves, crossing a bridge with views over Lucas Creek.

Practical Info

Off street parking is available from Kell Drive, and public toilets and picnic tables are on site.
