Why go?

Climb, swing, spin and slide your way through

Harrington Park is a fun, varied playground with heaps of play equipment to suit toddlers through to older children. With climbing walls, slides, monkey bars, balancing beams, and a flying fox, there’s plenty to explore. A pretend-play tractor, rounded glider, basketball court, and spacious grassy field add even more options for an active, family-friendly outing.
