Cartledge Reserve
Park
👍👍 A large park hidden away in this residential area. Heaps of room for various sports and for the kids to run around. There is also good play equipment and an updated Pavilion. Probably not as nice as other locals parks but still good if you live nearby.

Fordham Gardens
Park
😐 It’s a very nice relaxing park to go to on my lunch break and hear the sound of running water, different grass, flowers and trees across the park, benches, shade, a barbecue and children’s playground.

Gardiner Park
Park
👍👍 A synthetic oval?!?! Hell yes!! I didn’t think I’d like it, but I love it! No mud! Brilliant. Seriously, it’s brilliant. This renovated and rejuvenated footy oval is impressive, nested between the freeway and the train line (literally opposite the station) with a pleasant back drop of trees threaded...

100 Acres Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Beautiful reserve with lots of natural bushland, with walking trails throughout. Dogs are allowed on leash. Easy parking, perfect place to stretch your legs. I swear when you're in the middle of the reserve you can't hear any traffic noise. Also if you look carefully and stay quiet, there are a mob...

Blacks Walk

👍👍 Lots of wide, open space and also some bushland tucked away. Great place for a walk or a bike ride. A creek runs through here as well. Connected to Kalang Park if you’d like to extend the trail, which is nice!

Bucks Walking Trail
Park
👍👍 Lovely local trail. I always enjoy the boardwalk section, and if you climb up the hill, the alpacas waiting at the top are worth the effort! 🌾🦙

Balwyn off leash dog park (fenced)
Park
👍 We love taking our dog here. The secure, fully fenced area provides piece of mind so our dog can run off lead. It is not a very large area and can get quite busy at peak times. Now we just need more like this in the area as Boroondara is lacking in this area compared to other local council areas.
