Little ones will like the baby swings and horse bouncers and older kids will like testing their skills on the challenging bar equipment. This park is still very new but will become even better as the trees mature.

I take my 1 year olds here a couple times a week and they have been enjoying the swings and horses, it’s connected to the pathways in the neighbourhood and great for all ages, there is also a scavenger hunt game with “treasure” hidden around the playground for you to find – pretty cool!
