Moncrieff Community Recreation Park

Lots of different things to do here - outdoor gym, soccer, basketball, table tennis, giant kids playground, kids learn to ride bike track, and much more. Parking, toilets and bbqs also available. Great place to check out and spend an hour or two.

I would recommend this wonderful playground for all ages! There are various new equipment including some fitness machines. A big hamster wheel is quite interesting. My kids love to go around the wheel while try to keep them balance. Also a small bike track surrounds the area for kids around 3-5 to learn road safety. Two big slides and several small slides available for kids to explore. There are also lawn areas and BBQ facilities. Toilets are also available; however, quite dirty at the time we stay there.
Highly recommend for kids from 3years old to adolescent.

Seems to have everything: open grassed space where some teens were practicing rugby, climbing & play equipment for children, “race track” path, table tennis tables (BYO paddles and ball) basketball court is also a soccer pitch, cricket net, gym/exercise equipment.
Electric BBQ (BYO cleaning & cooking gear), chairs and tables under shade at various places.
Community Noticeboard.
Only one toilet was unlocked when we were there. Water refill station nearby.

An excellent park with plenty of play equipment and facilities. Well maintained and carefully planned. Could use some extra shaded areas for sitting.

So much for different aged children to do from toddlers to teenagers.
BBQ's were clean, free, everyone sharing happily a few birthday celebrations happening.
Toilets a bit dirty ,floors very wet and smelly.
Very windy and cold so make sure you rug up!! Parking good with disability parking.
Bubblers and lots of picnic tables and benches spread throughout the huge playground.
Basket ball court, volley ball court, cricket net and large open space to play soccer or footy.
Great bike and scooter track, as well as adult futness equipment with instructions on how to use each poece correctly.
Lots of people there today but so much room so you can stay socially distant.
Great to see so many dad's with there children and grandparents.

Fantastic playground! It's always so busy which means that kids love it. Parking it quite full most times as well. The adult sized hamster wheel is always a winner with everyone there. The large oval, cricket nets, basketball court and activity areas will keep children of all ages busy. One of our family's favourite destinations.

The playground that has everything? Yes! Most things that kids and adults truly love are on this playground. This playground sits on top of a hill and is visible from quite afar. It's main colour theme is yellow and red. There is a huge array of play equipment from slides, climbing ropes, a climbing tower, net round swings and there are shaded parts of the playground. There is also a kids bike and scooter track that they can use to explore various parts of the playground. The track has stop signs, pit stop signs, directional arrows, lanes and a finish line. However, unique to this playground is the hamster wheel.

There are picnic areas which are shaded and nearby toilet facilities. There are also barbecue areas for cooking up snags, burger patties and steaks.

There are also a number of sporting facilities including a fenced off basketball, there is a soccer/football field nearby and cricket pitches and two table tennis tables.

For a kids perspective and a review and rating of this playground please search for "Playground Hunter goes to Moncrieff Playground CANBERRA" in youtube.

What a fantastic park! We have ping-pong tables, workout equipment, basketball, BBQ, and cricket facilities, public toilets... Climbing towers. Slides.. jeez.. even an open field.

Can't believe how amazing this park is.

If you like to exercise outdoor this park is for you. There is a gym section where you find some good machines as well as a soft surface to do pushups and jumps on. I use the Nike Training app and do some of my exercises on the gras next to the machines. Highly recommended and love to go here to do my daily routine.

Great park for all ages

Such a great place to take the kids after school or on the weekend. It is always hard to find parking so that speaks for it's popularity.

It has some BBQ facilities which are pretty clean for park BBQs

Great array of activities to do. Kids love it!!

Great modern playground. Perfect for most ages. Not much for toddlers but mine loved climbing on the big hill part and the inbuilt slide was fantastic. Loved the variety of equipment and swings.

Great bike track for little ones.

The gym equipment is fantastic. Love the proximity to children's play equipment. You have the option to workout while the kids play.

Parking, BBQ and toilets available on-site.

Other sporting facilities close by and nice open field next to equipment.
