McGiffen Park Alkimos is in a new Alkimos estate perfect for older kids. The park is also perfect if you are after a quieter play. The estate is accessed via only one road, which is still under construction, meaning most people probably don’t actually know of its existence. I actually had to pull over and check I wasn’t driving into a building site. But once you reach the park you realise it’s the perfect spot to let some big kids run wild.
The park itself is mostly fenced off and, of course, surrounded by very quiet streets. The park has two large slides, and what makes this park better suited to older kids is the large rope climbing structure that goes between the two slides and is the only way up. Making it perfect if you have some big energy to burn.
The park does feature some elements for younger kids like a nest swing, merry go round both on soft fall flooring.
The main park is on a large sandpit which also has musical beams and stepping stones.
The area has a large grass space perfect for kicking a ball about. There are no shade sails over the park but there are two undercover picnic tables with a BBQ space. There is also street parking right next to the park and all around.
A great park if you’re after a quieter play with the kids!
