Waterloo Park

They’ve done a decent job freshening this one up — the wood chippings are new and the equipment actually feels looked after for once. You’ve got your standard slides, swings, and a seesaw, which covers most ages without any fuss. The open space is genuinely generous, so younger kids can tear around while older ones head to the basketball court. It’s a solid urban park that doesn’t try to be anything it’s not, and honestly that works just fine for a casual afternoon out in Palmerston North.
