Keeping in touch with the environment isupgraded local playground at Sheidow Park. A small quaint upgraded play space area has been added to the existing reserve and allows the local kids a place to play on the equipment or amongst the existing trees and open grass area. The play ground features a mound slippery dip nestled amongst rocks and shrubs where the kids can choose to climb up on the stairs or the rocks depending on skill levels.
The nest swing is always a favourite and the kids will also find a rope climbing cone shaped piece of equipment along with a sea saw made from a log keeping with its back to nature theme . For the little ones you will find a timber bouncy piece of equipment . Positioned around the play space are logs for the kids to climb and walk along . A concrete path surrounds the play area ready for bikes , scooters or skateboards.
This play ground has NO shade , NO toilets , NO BBQ facilities or NO fence so a nice upgraded spot for a play if you live locally. We love the back to nature theme. Suitable for toddlers and younger school kids.

Glenthorne Nature Play Space Find it at: Majors Road, O'Halloran Hill Located within Glenthorne National Park-Ityamaiitpinna Yarta, this multi-million dollar nature playground has quickly become a favourite for Adelaide families, and honestly, it’s easy to see why. Opened in 2022, this incredible play space combines adventure, imagination, inclusive design and nature play in one huge family-friendly destination. What we love most about Glenthorne Nature Play Space is that it truly caters for all ages. While younger kids will adore the swings, sand play and cubby-building opportunities, older kids are absolutely going to love the giant climbing structures, flying foxes and enormous tube slide tower. It’s the kind of playground where you can easily spend hours exploring.

The Marion Coastal Walkway will take you all the way from Marino Rocks through to Hallett Cove, a total of 7.2 kms and with the newly opened multi-million dollar dual suspension bridges, the walk is now even more spectacular. The views are incredible and you can stop and head down the stairs to the beach to explore the small sea creatures and ancient rock faces when you need a break. The trail is open to the elements and there are beautiful, sweeping views so you will need to stop now and then to have a look around. This trail has some winding and uneven stairs and is more suitable to older kids, probably 8+, unless you have a small child you can take in a child carrier. It's great exercise and we often go just half way for some peaceful exercise with great views. Now, with our three little children aged 4, 2 and 4 months, we often park at the top of Dutchman Drive then walk down the easy path towards the slow flowing creek in Hallett Cove Conservation Park. It's an easy walk (downhill), but not really suitable for a pram so make sure you take the baby…
