  • The 3.8 km track around the lake is flat with varied views along the way. There is an abundance of bird life.

  • I have been here several times, sometimes just to sit by the lake, but have also walked the perimeter path (pushing a wheelchair) - takes about 45 minutes at a decent pace. The children's playground.....  more

  • This is a decidedly underrated attraction which features excellent walking paths and a variety of enticingly laid-out fauna. Water fowl abound. Take the time to visit it.

  • Wonderful and safe place to hang out during r have a picnic. We loved the sunset colours. Plenty of parking available but can get full during summer. You can feed the ducks and even walk around the lake which can take less than an hour. Becareful of duck poo on the ground.
  • A great playground! Suit all ages. Beautiful design and new equipment. we could spend the whole afternoon at here, a café just beside the playground, so kids can recharge their energy and have a little rest.
  • Lovely easy walk, great wide paths, fantastic play ground for kids. Cafe made a good iced coffee. Plenty of birds to feed so take plenty of frozen peas & corn, bird seed.
  • Excellent children's outdoor playground, suitable for a variety of ages. Under 3yrs have a gated and fenced area, with age appropriate playground. Our 1 year old loved it. There is also a large water play area with channels and adjustable water flow. Great selection of swings and sand area too. If you want to get some exercise there is a great walking footpath, flat so good for little ones on bikes but it is reasonably long walk around the Hamilton lake. Lovely to do on a nice day, but can be quite windy at times.
  • We all had a lovely time here. Lots of activities for kids.great picnic place. I also managed to have a good walk.
