Not much to do in terms of playing areas for kids few exercises facilities.
Local walk along the creek is a great place. You get to see nature at its best and it’s nice and quiet.
Good outdoor gym.
Overgrown and in need of repair after floods (but which one). Great looking creek and wildlife if restoration happens.
Best park in Nambour….No pesky people to annoy you.
Wanted to take my doggo for a walk and went to park the car and two guys were shooting up in front of me.
Is an unfenced park.
The picture where is that? Because it doesn't look like that. Needs mowing and cleaning.
