Central Gardens

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

Central Park's best known feature among the younger set is the Rocket, which is a great adventure to climb; it also has an extra-long slide. The gardens have lush foliage, meandering paths and 'green rooms' for photography. Since they were established in 1900, the gardens have had their ups and downs, but they remain one of Hawthorn's favorite places; the gardens can be hired for functions.

Markham Reserve

Reviewed By Valandria

Playground is safety fenced, so no issue with young kids wandering off too far unless they are specifically let out. There is an automated public toilet- but only one. Would be great if council installed a second toilet. There are BBQ with sheltered areas, newly installed shading cloth sails, and a huge expanse of playground equipment from traditional swings and spinners, to a long boardwalk and climbing ropes. There is a small skate park suitable for younger and older kids, plus a basketball court. Popular park for kids parties and celebrations. Gardiners creek trail just nearby behind the park.

Yarra Bank Reserve

Reviewed By Ellche

A great safe & clean park if you want river views and bush land plus open green fields. BBQ facilities, bins, toilets, playground, easy parking. There is a steepish path down to the river but that's great to forget you're in inner city. Very popular with dog owners - a nice walk along the river that gets a bit rugged further on. Lots of room to play fetch with friendly people around. You can watch the rowers training, sit under a shady tree or lay out a picnic rug.
