Penola Playground

If you’re passing through on a road trip, this is genuinely one of the better stops you’ll find along the way. The enclosed play area means you’re not chasing kids toward the carpark, which any parent will tell you is worth its weight in gold. Clean restrooms, a BBQ area, shaded seating, and a baby changing station — it’s all there and actually well-maintained. The skatepark nearby keeps older kids busy while the littler ones do their thing. Solid spot for all ages, not just a quick stretch-your-legs kind of place.
