Grinstead Park

Description

Set down the hill from the main road of Shand Street, this beautiful parkland ticks all the boxes.

Well-shaded, large, fort-like playground features slides, tunnels, a climbing net, chain ladders, a small flying fox, fireman's pole, and various steps and platforms to climb between.
For the toddlers there is also a pretend play shop set up as well as a chunky abacus, noughts and crosses, and the usual rockers.
There is the usual set of swings plus a circular lie-down group swing.
Most of the playground has a wood-chip surface however there is some rubber matting in the toddler pretend play area.
The park is a popular site for weekend birthday parties with sheltered picnic tables and BBQs available.
A few metres down a path through the trees is a large open area, perfect for kicking a ball around.
There is a mini-skateboard ramp and full-size basketball court nearby, along Shand Street.
Close to the road there is a fitness circuit with numerous stations and a board with instructions for equipment use.
Near the fitness circuit is a rebound wall for those wanting some vigorous exercise in the park.
Cyclists can find access to the Kedron Brook Cycleway nearby.
Off-street car park is available.
A toilet block is available, located at the top of the park near the road.
