Another great Wanaka playground. Has heaps of cool equipment for the kids. A nice big green and feels very safe.
McMurdo Park Playground
44 Dale Street, Albert Town 9305
Access notes
The equipment sits on a bark surface, a barrier for wheelchair users. Toilets are on site but a review notes they were out of order, and only on street parking is described with no accessible bay confirmed.
