    This is a great playground! There are so many exciting things to explore here and it is a great place to foster imaginative play! There are lots of slides, tunnels to crawl through and towers to climb. There are also a couple of sandpits, a trampoline and a plethora of other things to keep any kids interested. The staff on hand are very friendly and very quick to offer help! It's nice and close to South Melbourne shopping so there are lots of places for a revitalising snack after a good play!

    One of the most interesting playgrounds I've been to with a huge array of makeshift and homemade play equipment. Will definitely keep the kids occupied for a while. Only downside is some parts are a looking pretty aged and rundown and may be a little less safe than your average playground. Still definitely worth a visit.

    It would be a beautiful playground, except that since I've lived here (2 years) half of the time it's closed and it's almost never accessible. I'm sorry because it's a really nice place.

    Very rundown and broken, needs major upgrade which appears to be in planning. Best to avoid until then.

    An interesting cacophony of tree houses, climbing equipment, platform and activities room made from recycled shipping containers, trampoline, sandpit and plenty of bikes, trikes and scooters. All right in the heart of South Melbourne. If you have time to kill with your little ones come here for loads of fun

    This is a great whimsical playground that immediately felt like it has a lot of history behind it once you walk through the gate. It feels like a place where children can take risks, excercise their imagination and go on a big adventure with whatever story they can cook up with. There are also interesting art and doodles all around the area that set it apart from modern playground which can be too safe and bland.

    What a dump and extremely filthy ! Avoid for the sake of the children ! This place is dangerous and rundown and looks nothing like the pictures!

  • 3/5 Rebecca 3 months ago on Google β€’ 5 reviews New
    Looks pretty but be careful you’re not allowed to go in without a child just to look around

  • 5/5 Nigel C. 4 years ago on Google
    A hidden gem in the backyard of a residential area. It's almost like a child's dream adventure playground; slides, tunnels, tree houses, trampoline and much more!
