★★★★★Featured review by Rintaro

A small hill is located near the park. The slide is also designed to look like a small hill. There are BBQ facilities and toilets.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Works best as part of a broader Docklands outing rather than a standalone destination. Young children enjoy the climbing ring and hill slide, and the BBQ facilities make it viable for a family lunch stop. Supervise children closely near the tram and bike tracks — the precinct boundary has sparse barriers.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Combine with a walk along the harbourfront and lunch at one of the nearby waterfront restaurants
⏰BBQ facilities on site — bring supplies for a longer visit
đŸŽŸī¸Tram stops are right nearby, making it easy to reach without driving
🚗Check the tunnel area before sending younger kids in — cleanliness has been flagged by visitors

“When we first came here I was worried there wasn't enough equipment. But this blue ring entertained my son and a raft of other kids to no end. Plus the slide on a mountain with a tunnel. That's great too. What a little gem in the city. And there's BBQs!”
