Livvi’s Place at Riverglade Reserve

The zipline alone is worth the trip — kids absolutely lose their minds for it, and it’s one of the better ones you’ll find in this part of Sydney. Livvi’s Place sits inside Riverglade Reserve with a decent sandbox and slides to keep the toddler set busy while older kids take turns on the zip. There’s a solid stretch of open grass if you want to kick a ball around or just let them run it out. Restrooms on site means you’re not cutting the visit short, which locals will tell you makes a real difference. It tends to be quieter than the bigger Gladesville spots, so if you’re after a laid-back afternoon without the crowds, this one’s worth knowing about.
