Putney Park Playground for Family | Putney

Putney Park is a very popular park located at 55 Pellisier Road, Putney.  It is a hidden gem in the local suburb.  There have limited car parks but there is plenty of parking available adjacent to the park.  The park is not on the street level but when you walk down the stairs, you get very excited as immediately you could see the big water compound and beautiful waterviews in the background.

On the higher ground is the entrance structure for the really long slippery dip that snakes its way down to the lower playground area. It is best for older kids or littlies can ride with a parent. Also good for the adventurous older kids is a really tall spider climbing net that stretches up to a high point.


For the warmer days there is a fun splash paddle pool to cool everyone off. The water play area has two nicely landscaped shallow paddling pools with a little river running between them. There is a bubble beach section and plenty of room for your kids to splash about. Nearby are some huge coloured squares, pyramids and balls which kids seem to find fascinating.

 It is a great place for family picnics with beautiful waterviews in the background. You can sit and watch the boats rock in the bay while your snags sizzle away on the electric barbeques. There are large grassed areas for running and kicking a ball plus you can keep the kids entertained with the two fun playgrounds.

 

There is also is a very adventurous playground close to the water at the northern end of the park. Lots of the equipment is beyond the reach of most under fives but it’s good for older siblings.There is a pyramid-shaped rope climbing frame in the park and a junior play structure. Beside these on the flat grassy area are barbecues and shaded picnic tables.
