⭐ What Makes This Park Special

Family Playground Fun βœ…

Glen Park is a top spot for the ankle-biters, especially toddlers and kids under 5. The playground has recently been upgraded with new, safe equipment including a double slide and big steps for little climbers. The train theme adds a bit of fun, and the big shade sail means the kids can play without getting fried by the Aussie sun. Parents will appreciate the bench seats nearby, perfect for keeping an eye on the little rippers while they explore. Just watch the big grassy slope in the middle – it’s great for tumbling but needs supervision for the littlies.

Beautiful Views That'll Take Your Breath Away πŸŒ…

This quiet park is tucked away at the bottom of Glen Rd and offers a peaceful, green space surrounded by new tree plantings that will only improve the vibe as they grow. The big grassy hill is a highlight for kids to roll and tumble down, adding a natural play element. While it’s near the train line, the area remains calm and perfect for a relaxed arvo with the family. The shady spots and open grass make it a lovely place to picnic or just chill out while soaking in the fresh air.

Family-Friendly Amenities for a Chill Arvo 🚻

Glen Park offers practical features that make family visits easy and comfy. There’s a picnic table and plenty of seating for parents to rest while the kids play. The big shade sail provides welcome relief from the harsh Aussie sun. However, there are no public toilets or rubbish bins on site, so it’s best to come prepared and take your rubbish home. Accessibility features requested by locals weren’t supplied, so the playground mainly suits smaller children who are able and spatially aware.
