“A small children playground inside the Kensington Reserve Park. Toilets and carpark are nearby. The playground equipment / facilities looked a bit old or outdated. If they are upgraded, it would be good and be more attractive to the locals.”

Overview
Burnside Adventure Park sits inside Kensington Reserve with the creek running alongside. Play equipment includes climbing structures, slides, and animal sculptures carved from logs.

Equipment is older-style and lacks the multi-level designs of newer parks.
