Mannachie Playground

Mannachie is the go-to spot for younger kids in Forres — the swings cater well to toddlers and there’s a climbing structure that doesn’t intimidate the little ones the way some parks do. The zipline is the obvious crowd-pleaser, so expect a queue on any halfway decent day. It does get busy, which tells you something about how few decent options there are locally. Worth knowing: the equipment has seen better days in places, so keep an eye on that if you’re bringing really small children.
