Great park. Could do with more and bigger trees on the edge but otherwise it's lovely.

Great little Neighbourhood park. Has something for the big kids and the little kids. And some native bush too, so good for exploring and hiding as well!

Definitely a nicer spot than the usually suburbia parks, this bad boy features a public toilet, some real space to play rugby with the fam, some nice adult playground equipment, and a caged of/ enclosed area for kids as well. With a nice walking track round the sides, the COuncil have done a great job. Chur
