Neale Park
North Road, The Wood, Nelson 7010
Why these ages?
Fully fenced junior corner keeps toddlers separated from the adjacent large skatepark and the Maitai River is set back beyond the reserve. Older children get extensive climbing structures, and the skatepark with two bowls and rails is an excellent tween/teen draw. The fence is the key trust-signal for parents letting 2-4yo roam a corner of the reserve.
What's here
Neale Park is a big multi use reserve between North Road and the Maitai River in The Wood, Nelson, where a fully fenced toddler playground sits alongside one of the city's largest skateparks. It suits families with a mix of ages, toddlers in the fenced corner and older kids on wheels.
