St Kilda Adventure Playground, St Kilda
Thee St Kilda Adventure Playground is a manned outdoor playground run by volunteers and only open set times. It’s cool, rustic, funky and very St Kilda. There is something for everyone and after visiting this centre has now become our favourite playground in Melbourne.
St Kilda Adventure Playground
St Kilda Adventure Playground is set within a small park on Neptune Street St Kilda, just up the road from Luna Park.
It began as a park built especially for disabled children but is now open for everyone to enjoy and visit under manned hours run by volunteers.
There is something for every child to enjoy, it is a fantastic centre with many features to suit all.
You will find a large inbuilt trampoline where the kids can jump around.
There are monkey bars, a tree hut and a sand pit and a basketball court (with many balls available to play).
The wooden castle and shipwrecks are great for climbing, cubby house, picnic areas (some undercover).
There is a large wooden climbing structure with slides, community garden, an arts and craft area with everything supplied, and even books to read, all set within a rustic bark garden.
The playground will keep kids entertained for hours, however, is most suitable to 5 – 11 year old’s.
