Parks in the City of Unley

[Guest mark&rachel]

Hi All,

 

Does anyone know of any decent big parks in the City of Unley?

 

We (a) wana take the kids to new parks and (b) wana hit some in the summer for Coffee and Treats.

 

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

 

Regards

Mark

There are no big parks in the Unley Council area. Most of the parks are small and tucked away down side streets apart from Unley Oval and Heywood Park at the top of King William Rd. Over in Burnside council area there is Tusmore Park, which has a wading pool, a creek and lots of play equipment. Lots of families take picnics here. It is very popular in the summer. Another park is on Glen Osmond rd as it comes through the parklands in to the city. It's fully fenced so again is popular and people might see your van. There is also North Unley Playpark on Young St, but it is tucked away.

Try Hazelwood Park in Tusmore (not in COU but worth it), it has an award winning kids play ground (zip wires etc) and there's also an outdoor heated pool

Guys thanks for the help. Hazelwood Park would have been ideal so i contacted them and they dont do permits there (probably cos of the cafe).

Doh

Going to get a permit for COU and see how it goes.
