Find it at: South Parklands, Lightsview
A fabulous adventure playground has been added to the Lightsview development, which is well worth the trip! Opened in April 2021, the nature play themed park includes water play, a huge number of logs and balancing beams to test out kids and parents alike! Throw in a climbing hill with slide, a basketball court, sand play area, in-ground trampolines, swings and even more slides, we love this park for older kids.
For the parents there are a couple of BBQs and some under cover bench seats and tables. The nearby wetlands are sensational and really add to the relaxing vibe of the park, and we absolutely loved the little board walk path between the ponds.
Toilets have now been built (new since the park opening) but there’s not a lot of shade and parking can be tricky so be prepared you might have to walk a little way to get here.
NB: Toddlers might be better at the Lightsview Toddler Playground as this area is unfenced and quite big and with the wetlands nearby it can be a bit hard with little ones.

Find it at: Corner of East Parkway & North Parkway, Lightsview Any parent to a toddler knows that finding the right playground to safely entertain them is no small feat. Not only do playgrounds often cater to a mix of ages but they regularly feature slides and climbing equipment that can entice little humans to bite off a little more than they can chew. For this reason, the Lightsview Toddler Playground is a hidden gem. Situated in the leafy suburban neighbourhood of Lightsview the playground is fully fenced, surrounded by leafy trees and features a nice selection of well spaced play equipment. Walking up to the play area there is a grassy area that separates the playground from the road and provides a nice spot for picnics. As you come closer you will find a drink fountain an undercover table and chairs and two entry points to the playground. Inside the fenced grounds there is a swing with two seats, a jungle gym with two slides, a small car, bouncey helicopter, sea saw and two in ground trampolines. The park also features a protective rubber ground covering so that a lesser impact is felt when tumbles occur. Depending on the…

Find it at: North East Road, Kleming Located right behind the OG Hotel this playground is great for all ages. The play equipment is quite spread out but has a handy area for the little ones, some nature play aspects , flying fox , slides and loads and loads of climbing pieces. The climbing pieces are the main attraction of this play space and are great for a wide range of ages and abilities. Featuring lots of equipment to climb up, over, and through - from monkey rings, ropes, spider webs, rock climbing - it has it all. Lots of energy to be burned and lots of challenges along the way. Certainly can't get bored quickly in this area of the playground. The playground also features a mound slide where the kids climb the peak to use the slide. Located right next to the slide is a double flying fox that has 2 seats including a safety seat with buckle. This allows the smaller kids or kids with disabilities to also have a go. Next to the climbing frames the kids will also find a swing set along with a spinning wheel. The smaller kids' equipment area is all together…

Gorgeous leafy playground located in Prospect suitable for all ages. This playground has a lovely vibe about it with some great play equipment in a “magical” garden theme. This playground allows the children to play on the equipment, explore the garden and nature areas, build sandcastles in the sandpit, splash in the small water play area, kick a ball on the lawn or just relax on a blanket. The playground is fully fenced but also offers lots of shady grassed areas outside the fence that can be utilised for picnics /parties. The play equipment has 2 separate areas to cater for different ages. The Toddler area has a slippery dip on the hill surrounded by grass, a swing set including baby swing, some climbing equipment and a few small fun bouncing pieces. The bigger kid’s area is based around a constructed tree house feel which offers harder/higher ropes and a higher slippery dip area however this area is not under shade. Both areas have bark chips underneath for a softer landing. This playground has tables located around the fenced in area however the toilets, BBQs and drinking fountain and more bench tables are located outside the playground fence. A great…
