Gilston Hall Playground

The flying fox is the real drawcard here — kids will queue for it repeatedly while parents settle in on the benches without having to hover too much. There’s a solid mix of slides and swings that keeps the younger ones busy once the older kids have claimed the zipline. Parking is easy, which makes a difference when you’ve got a packed bag and a few kids in tow. Honestly, it’s one of those spots where you end up staying longer than planned.
