💬 What Visitors Are Saying

It's a cool little park. It's a shame that the tunnel from the parking and skatepark itself isn't adequately lit despite having lighting available.
Overall, it is a well-kept skatepark with cool art and a few different obstacles to hone skills on.
Nice clean place. Next to the really nice and the skate park is the entrance of the free Palmerston Water Park.
The tunnel is pretty good for filming skateboarding or rollerblading footage.
Great clean place the tunnel is always a hit with the kids plenty of different ramps half pipes griding rails heaps of room.
One of the better ones I've seen. Shelter provided, access to toilets and water, not far from McDonalds and isolated enough to not bother non-skating general public.
There is also a lot of CCTV as well so you feel safe going there by yourself.
This location is in a good location as it has a lot of parking and is really close to places like the university and McDonalds ect.
