Whether you have bigger kids or little kids, the whole family is going to LOVE this ENORMOUS playspace. Based on the gold panning history of the town, this giant playground has everything you could want for a family adventure.

The big kids will flock to the Parkour zone around the replica poppet head and other climbing frames or head straight to the wide open green space in the middle. The little kids will wanna have a swing, crawl in the tunnel, find the cubby houses or whiz down a slide. But everyone will want to have a dig! Mamma’s favourite feature has to be the huge sandpit. This unique design has its own mining carts that travel around the entire perimeter of the space. Kids will transport their sandy ‘finds’ around to sorting stations, digging pits that are located at points around the sandpit. If you are REALLY lucky … there could even be some gold hidden. The central depot is brilliant too - complete with water pump and shade - what all good sand pits should have.

What is better than a playground … a playground with a CAFE INSIDE IT! That is right. The local Rotary Club worked together to restore this beautiful W Class Tram and have converted it to a really cool coffee shop, called the Tram Cafe. It is located at the back of the playspace where you can enjoy the beautiful view of the park and grab a coffee, a milkshake or an ice cream.

It is an exceptional play zone that will be enjoyed by families for years to come!

Mamma’s special mention: The Playspace is located along the Diamond Creek Trail - just like some other Mamma favourites - the Edendale Community Environment Farm and Eltham North Adventure Playground.
