Good place for kids.. approachable by Bus from CBD .. slides, Zipline, different swing for kids

It's a nice place for relaxation. It is family friendly, has bbq grill for summer outing and kids' playground. Walkers, joggers, kayakers will enjoy this place too!

Love this protected park for the kids. Lots of hidden surprises, like the maze, flying fox and best of all it’s fenced so safe for little ones. Had a large car park, bathrooms and bbq facilities too.

Park with a surrounding child period fence and toilets. Plenty of picnic areas and play equipment for all abilities and a wide range of ages.

Always a pleasant walk with many wildlife observations. Saw a big group of kangaroos, wombats, parakeets, and this confident kookaburra. A great place to take visitors to show off Melbourne suburb parks.

Great place for big and little kids (mine are as old as 3 and as young as 6months) many much older kids there too and things for all to do. Whether you watch a magpie concert, rocket around their multiple flying foxes or play all day in the huge sandcastle there's never a dull moment. Sometimes busy but never crazy. Lots of room in the surrounding grounds of lush grass for everyone.

A big fenced in playground that has four slides four swings two normal and two toddler. A seasaw, two flying foxes, musical bridge that has buttons you stand on and a wobble bridge,small maze where you press buttons and hear voices of kids playing marco polo and other games it has mirrors and art work in it. Three spin poles that you can stand or sit on, sand pit, small rock climbing wall with rope wall and rope ladder, a three person merry go round swing which has bat wings. Two tables undercover with bench seats and other seats around, barbecue with two hot plates and two drinking taps

It's Christmas day and we have been here a few hours now. It is a comfortable crowd of well behaved people enjoying a great family environment. All the park facilities are well maintained and the kids are totally occupied in all of the various playground areas. None of the group here have any negative comments at all. This park is worth putting on the short list for family days out, hang on, I retract that I don't want it to get too popular lol.

Big green field to play on, nice playground, toilet on-site. We once were here to test our new tents, 3 to be exact. Very useful place 😏😏😏😏

Fantastic playground with the lot. Two flying foxes, heaps of swings, a climbing structure, slides, play areas including a giant sand-pit with lots of toys, two electric BBQs under shade with tables, drinking fountain and toilet facilities, easy access and heaps of parking, right next to a walking/cycling track. Heaps of fun, exercise and laughs.

Brilliant playspace, well shaded and full of native plants. Very cool map and key that my 3yo found fun, like a scavenger hunt. And she adored the mosaics and colourful footprints and river stone snakes and things set into the pavement and gardens. All in all a beautifully planned and well thought out space that genuinely adds to the environment it's set in. Swings, flying fox, water play and sandpit, nature play, small slides, maze, musical bridge, bouncy see saw, toilets, drinking fountains. Parking is free, but not especially abundant. A short walk up the track, past the exercise space there is a suspension bridge that crosses the river. A platypus has been spotted here occasionally.

Good play area for the kids, nice bridge to walk over and choice of paths to walk or ride bikes

Beautiful reserve. Nice walks and views. Great facilities. Excellent for a picnic.

A great park for family and kids to enjoy and have fun in. Has a few bbq pits which makes for a great bbq session during the summer.

Very lovely and unique place along with a beautiful wildlife. I caught this mesmerising photo of snake in the dunny. There is plenty of space for picnic, kids and dogs

Best park I've seen in all of Melbourne! It has plenty of shade, has hills and plenty of rides, areas for the kids of all ages. It even has a bbq area and the whole place is enclosed/fenced. Only downpoint are the toilets. They need to be maintained regularly.

Good picnic area nearby and this playground great for little ones

Lovely little enclosed playground with lots of shade.

So much to love love love about this little playground. Surrounded by a fence and kids safety gate, great range of play equipment for all ages, tables to sit out, plenty of shaded areas, and BBQs. There are toilets but the cleanliness is always foul when we have gone to use them.

Excellent playground and scenery.

A nice place for kids

My partner and I love this area and the walk along the Yarra river. There’s some BBQ areas and also a playground as well which is great for kids.

Fantastic playground. Two flying foxes heaps of swings, BBQ facilities, slides, and heaps of climbing structures. A fun maze, lots of shade, car parks either side. Definitely go.

Very nice and family friendly park.

Easy parking. Finns Reserve is a nice, large circuit walk that extends a long way now. Kid's playground and bbq & tables under cover

Fun little place to take a younger family. Safe play space and good facilities, great tracks to walk on day or night.

Great place for kids, families and friends. Lots of play equipment for the kids and BBQ facilities available. Great walks as well

Great amenities, park, views, trails and nature You can even take a dip in the rapids if you dare. The fact that this amount of natural beauty is so close to the suburbs says a lot to Melbourne's lovely urban nature. The only issue that is keeping this park from being an instant 5 stars is the SHOCKING design of the bridge connecting one side of the rapids to another. On a busy day, the bridge becomes bottlenecked and congested leaving walkers and bikers squeezed in like sardines in a tin cane. Seriously, what were the designers thinking making the only bridge wide enough for 1 person comfortably cross on such a busy nature reserve?!

Here is recommended for family with kids. The playground for kids and ball games or walking along the river for all ages.

This is one of my favourite playgrounds in Melbourne. On most playgrounds you're lucky if there is at least a sunsail or something providing a little bit of protection from the harsh sun in the summer months. This playground has lots of shady trees and bushes making it almost feel like a little fairy forest. If you're on your own and have to deal with multiple kids beware though. It's impossible to keep them all in sight especially on busy days. But at least it's completely fenced off. Also don't miss checking out the suspension bridge over the Yarra.

wonderful playground. Well maintained and felt so close to nature. variety of play equipment for kids to play even different age group. Playground has toilet in a convenience location. so that with little kids parent do not have to move a lot. love the maze and sundial. These are unique in this playground. In a gist, this playground has enough challenging equipment for different age group kids. Only drawback is sometimes its hard to find nearby parking spot but there are plenty street parking in surrounding area. It also has an awesome walk. You can spend walking jogging in a beautiful reserve.

Great park,! now has a bicycle maintenance station👍

I love this park but I'm not sure why they took down the flying fox ride ? If you take the kids to the suspension bridge - look for platupus swimming under it & around.

Love it! Great for young children and toddlers. We went in a super hot day and didn't even feel it. It has a great sand pit and table area with lots of shade. It's all fenced. No dogs allowed

Lovely playground for kids under 7. Not much for the older child but it is beautifully designed with a fast and exciting 3 person circular swing.

Great playground for young kids as it's fenced off. There's something for everyone, from the sand pit to the jungle gym. Only criticisms would be that the slides are a bit awkward for younger toddlers to reach the top, and the toilets are pretty stinky.

My housemate says this used to be the best cause of the sick as flying Fox thing. She had her first birthday there.

Amazing play area, gated plus nature play setup by council outside the gated area summer water and sand play is great. Flying fox, swings climbing etc don't forget to walk to the bridge and watch the water flow

Plenty of parking options and facilities for children and shade, and plenty of trail options. The suspension bridge and Yarra river rapids are worth a visit. No cafe option available.

Fun for both the little ones and adults alike. So much to do. Gets very busy.

The kids love this park.

Great place for a walk

Spread out but is enclosed in a safety fence. The kids had a great time running around indendently. It has great seating areas and BBQ facilities.

Great Place

Our kids had a ball here, can't wait to go back! I'll take a picnic lunch next time. No dogs allowed FYI.

Nice place for walking

Great playground that is completely fenced in which allows the little folk to run around whilst the parent can relax in the various leafy surrounds. There is lots on offer and plenty of shelter and bbq space.

Brilliant place for little kiddies, great for all kids. Extremely safe kid proof fencing, lots of play equipment in a stunning park. Very clean, nice toilets. Really happy and beautiful place.

Australian bush land with Magpies and other birds Cooking arrangements and lots of seats. Yarra River flows through. Restful walks.

A great place to visit. The playground and park is one of the best in Metropolitan Melbourne.

Great Place to go walking or having fun with the kids on the Playground.Public Toilets usally fairly clean

Great fenced playground, lots of shade in and around the different areas of the playground. Toilets also nearby

All abilities playground, lots of different equipment, a MAZE!, a swing merry go round, and even a flying fox! Lovely that the playground is fenced, has a little track through it so good for scooters and little toddler bikes. We heard the ice cream truck while we were there too! If you're lucky, you'll get to see platypus families from the bridge 😊

The playground is nice but its right across a TOWER which is so toxic for humans , especially young children. Towers should never be this close to playgrounds or homes!!!!!

Fantastic place for a walk. It's beautiful.

A great fenced playground with lots to keep the kids entertained.

Great place that is going to be even better. Good for all ages

Amazing place to chill

Lovely park to have a walk in the morning. (;

A little hidden gem of a place to walk the dog during covid..or any other time. Pretty place. Generally well maintained. Som unpathed areas. Good parking. Near Wombat play area for children. Close enough to BP servo. Abt 2500 steps circuit

Open now and always beautiful! Lots of money spent making this place natural and lovely!
