mitchell avenue splash park, wangaratta

When heading up to Victoria’s High Country in the warmer months, Mamma’s crew loves a stop off at Mitchell Avenue Splash Park in Wangaratta. 

It’s fully fenced and has a decent variety of water spouts and play experiences, meaning kids of all ages will be able to get amongst it. Scattered along the ground are spraying arches to run through, mushroom shaped fountains that toddlers will love, a water channel, water shooters and a dragonfly shaped shower. 

What splash park wouldn’t be complete without a tipping bucket! The pressure of the falling water isn’t too strong here, which is good for any kiddos, or mammas, who get caught up in an out pour by accident. 

Mamma’s little ones love climbing the huge rocky hill and using the 2 water shooters to drench those down below. There’s also a water slide to enter up here, which is so cool and underneath the rocky hill you can travel through a tunnel, dodging water spouts. 

When it’s time to dry off or just take a rest, there’s a huge grassed area to lay a picnic blanket or towels down on. There’s also shaded tables scattered around, benches and a big shaded rotunda with tables, chairs and bbqs. The family sized changing facilities here make a visit here so easy. They have toilets, showers and change tables. 

When it’s too cold for a splash of water play or you’re visiting outside of operating months, there is a separate fully fenced playground, flying fox, basketball court and BBQ facilities available here to enjoy!
