Lovely little playground for kids, an entrance to Wakari School and it's swimming pool is from here.
Mayfield Avenue Playground
22 Mayfield Avenue, Wakari, Dunedin 9010
Access notes
Play equipment sits on a mix of artificial and bark surfacing, and a review notes a long standing underground leak that keeps part of the ground soft and muddy. No accessible parking bay or toilet is confirmed in the source text.
What's here
Mayfield Avenue Playground in Wakari picked up a genuine drawcard in February 2025: a new modular pump track built right next to the existing play area.
