    This is a beautiful reserve filled with native plants. Gardens are well maintained and although small there are many quiet spaces to enjoy the lovely view

    A beautiful place to walk along the Yarra River, with many stops to appreciate the beauty of nature.

    Nice little reserve with a couple of BBQs, a coveted area, picnic tables and a play area of kids. There is a historic bridge nearby and you can walk by the lush green river bank. There is a small off leash area for dogs. Note of caution: There is a drivable road that cuts between the zones - so one needs to keep a close watch on little kids and pets.

    Great local park, hidden just off a main road, on the banks of the Yarra where local families catch up and play without cars or other worries. You can imagine you are in the middle of nowhere but you are just a few tram stops from the city

    Beautiful spot down by the Yarra river. Has a lovely play ground for the kids plus a place to sit and eat under cover incase of rain. Very green, and lots of trees. Peaceful and relaxing and easily accessible by public transport. What more could you want!

    Beautiful little park in an historic setting on the banks of the Yarra. It was the site of the original punt across the river, and is near one of the oldest steel bridges in Australia. Great spot for a family picnic or bbq, accompanied by a stroll along the banks of the river.

    It looks way more beautiful now after finishing all construction. Now it's more family friendly next to the Yarra River.

    Lovely little hidden gem of a park. Plenty of parking and clean BBQ area. A little noisy with the regular sound of trs rumbling past.

    Visited here for a quiet wine with a friend still in lockdown. It looks like a wonderful family place with kids playground, seats and pristine bbq's and easy parking.

    Like the city isn't available

  • 2/5 Guy K. 1 year ago on Google
    A bit of a waste of money spent on this park, half the 'play' items don't work properly or hold no interest to small children, there are far better playgrounds nearby - skip this one

  • 5/5 Peter C. 4 years ago on Google
    A small scenic park that is fairly secluded on the banks of the Yarra River.

  • 5/5 BriTar 9 months ago on Google
    Didn't really use the park - too busy kayaking in the river, avoiding the bat bombardment.

    Best park ever. Teach your young loved one's to become a rower as they watch the rower's row row down the stream.

  • 3/5 Bryan M. 4 years ago on Google
    Pretty place. Picnic tables. Swings. Close to the river. Parking. Nice walk along the river. Great. 3 stars not 4 as it is an off lead dog area and as usual the dogs are not well controlled. Great if you like dog's in your picnic otherwise not so much. Good views across the river
