This new Parkland incorporates the native prehistoric flora and fauna and the brand-new water play area. This parkland is a reflection of the Aboriginal cultural history and the town's railway heritage connection with the early Western line.

These parklands showcase local flora, local art and provide a place for a pleasant stroll or a family picnic. There is a lovely waterpark and climbing frames for kids to play. It is really well maintained and on our morning walk we saw everything being well cleaned. A great use of the land which we heard had been a disused rail yard .

Situated right beside Chinchilla’s beautiful newly built Botanic Gardens & water park???????????????? We stopped by the information center first before taking a selfie with the iconic big watermelon ???? & so our boys could have a play in the water park next door. Very helpful guy that served us, we bought a sticker for the back of the caravan, had a look around & went on our way.
