Burnside Playground

Locals know this one as a decent little stop if you’re already out and about in Forres with kids in tow. It’s nothing flashy, but that’s kind of the point — a straightforward community playground without the crowds you’d get somewhere bigger. The proximity to Kinloss Abbey makes it worth pairing with a wander around the abbey grounds if you’ve got curious kids who don’t mind a bit of history alongside their playtime.
