★★★★★“I visit this park almost every day with my dog. It’s a lovely bit of Melbourne. There is open grassy area and a riverside trail for walkers (no cycling though… but there is a shared path as well so not to worry!) and play equipment for the kids.”

★★★★★“A great park along the winding Yarra river. Great for relaxing. I like to do the hike trails there or sit and read a book on the grass or on the park benches. Makes Great picnic area. Nice landscape full of slopes, bushes with lots of native wildlife, trees, shrubs and bushes. Lots of parking available and great bike trails for cyclists.”

★★★★★“This little spot is great. There's loads of birds and a few different trails to take along the Yarra. You can also access the Boulevard from here. There always seems to be a lot of birds in this area including lorikeets and ringnecks. I like to stroll along the river and decompress after work in this park. There's a kids play area and it's a dog friendly park too.”

★★★☆☆“I personally love this spot to take my dog but I have no idea why the council after all these years still have not installed a tap or proper bins.. Great spot but the council once again lets us down... Also this means the dogs tend to go down to the river to drink where there are a LOT of tiger snakes in snake season..”

★★★★★“Lovely little reserve by the river with a nice playground. Adjacent to the beautiful pedestrian bridge that crosses to the other side of the river linking you up with the bike access and the nearby convent. Pleasant walk between the two.”
