Mighty River Domain Playground

Locals know to pair a stop here with a coffee from the Podium Cafe next door — it just makes sense. The climbing structure keeps kids busy while you actually get to sit down and finish a hot drink, which is a win. It’s right alongside the river, so the setting does a lot of the heavy lifting even on an ordinary day. Parking is easy enough, and the surrounding trees give a bit of cover if the sun’s out.
