Balwyn Park, Balwyn

The new kid on the block, this beauty is every perfect for the bigger kids. Located right next to the Balwyn Park crickets nets and near Whitehorse Road, this fun space has a parkour feel to it and there are plenty of fun and colourful rubbery surfaces for kids of all ages to clamber over as well.

The lower level features a funky looking tennis wall, netball ring, giant chess board as well as some fun round downball type courts.

Then head up to the yellow and black parkour area, have a hit of table tennis (byo bat and ball) or hit the outdoor fitness equipment. The park’s old playground still remains a little further up the street, so there are still dual slides, ladder, chain bridge, hanging disks, spiral ladder, curved slide, abacus, shop front, steering wheel, fireman’s pole, small climbing wall, rigid frame bridge, monkey bars, balance beam and cubby area for the littler ones. Large climbing walls, target board for hand-balling, horizontal bars, see-saw, flying fox and swings.
