Nattai Ponds Playground

If you’re after somewhere quiet with a bit of natural scenery around you, this little spot out in Braemar is worth knowing about. It’s the kind of place locals stumble onto rather than seek out, sitting close to the Nattai Ponds area where the views do a lot of the heavy lifting. Don’t come expecting a packed-out playground with all the bells and whistles — amenities are pretty limited, so bring what you need. Worth a quick scout before you make the trip, especially if accessibility is a factor for your family.
