Braeside Park

My wife and I enjoyed a walk around the designated tracks. It's scenic, no hills and overall a pleasant way to exercise. We're from Bundaberg and enjoy the rural feel when staying in suburbia. Unfortunately we couldn't take our Dog. He would have loved it

Awesome and friendly park to visit alone, with your family or friends.
It's a wonderful and huge place full wildlife, we saw a lot of rabibits and different kinds of birds. It's very safe to everybody even for kids, with great areas to have nice picnics, with large running paths and walking tracks to do some excercise: walking, running, do some hiking or ride a bike.
Also there are some barbecue areas and plenty of playgrounds to have some fun with kids

It felt old and preserved the further I explored away from car parks. It also felt peaceful and classy away from the main car parks because of the various people I passed was a unique mix of adult males and females young and old. I went on a week day during business hours. I appreciated the drinking tap outside the main toilet block but I felt like I was being watched by sordid older males in the area with the odd drug dealer riding by. Something just didn’t feel right around the main toilet block and main car park near it. The rear car park was fine but maybe that was because the toilet block there was closed.

Excellent place to visit on a nice sunny day... can spend either an hour walking around or a day picnicking with friends. I came at 2pm on a Sunday and the parking was crazy; had to circle around twice till I found a space.

Very kid friendly with plenty of playgrounds and things to do. I think there was one cafe on location so definitely bring your own food and drinks. Park is well maintained and curated.

Check out a great bayside nature reserve. Animals and plants abound, playgrounds for kids, expanses of grass, bbq's and toilets. Long walks, short walks, cycle etc: Keep it clean!!!

Great place for some bird and rabbit spotting!. Very safe and large running path with lots of runners. Great for bike riding as well.

There are so many trails and many rabbits around. Grassland was good. You can spend a day here. Have a walk, chill your mind and enjoy the day

Braeside Park is a special undisturbed place of nature, hidden within the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
Within the four corners of this park you will find spectacular sights of flora and fauna, within its heathlands, woodlands and wetlands.
You will easily forget that you are not far away from civilisation when you visit this place.
Excellent for a walk, run or bike ride.

Beautiful place to take a walk, very large area with lots of amazing scenery. Absolutely adore the wetlands and loved to see the birds both on and off water! The few rabbit sightings were also quite fun. Great place to spend time walking, definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful place.. all can enjoy and spend the day with your families, friends...attraction place..I have visited several times...❤🥰

Vast spaces. Several parking lots along the route. Great place a walk. Beautiful green spaces. Lots of bunny rabbits about so take care. Play area for children. Good quality, sturdy equipment. Slides. Climbing apparatus. Spinning balance wheel. Monkey bars. Giant abacus. Toy adjustable clock face. Kids seem to love it.

Excellent park for a good recreation/walking/cycling /picnic with family and friends. Kids Playarea is good as well. You'll get to spot hare and their borrows. It's a peaceful park to visit

Braeside Park 💚🌱🌿 a local Greenspace, it occupies a decent area of land which makes it nice for walks, rides, jogging, picnics and kids B"days, lots of space and with a few coveted wooden Pavilions for gathering under cover.

You can see native birds and rabbits with numerous different tracks available to explore, running, walking & cycling. 🏃🏃‍♀🏃‍♂🚴‍♀🚴🚴‍♂

There is a wooden building that says [ Information Centre ], not sure when it is actually open or if it's only for School groups?

A children's playground area with fairly basic equipment that will @ least keep younger kids amused/active, the play area is located towards the centre of the park.

There are also Public toilets towards the middle of the park, located in the general vicinity of the children's play ground area.

🚙🚗🚘 The car parking is free and quite numerous, the car parks wind their way through the park, and are not located in just one central area.

Enjoy! 🤗🇦🇺🦘🌿

Amazing park, great for a bit of easy hiking, big park full of wildlife and lush green. Have some nice picnics areas as well

Braeside Park is a nice parkland with lots of BBQ areas and hangout places. Its a gorgeous picnic area for a family outing.

Suitable for larger groups. If you plan it right you can plan a large event like a office party or BBQ kinda outing.

It used to be open 24/7 but at the moment the main gates are closed at night.

Activities: Jogging, Running, Bird watching, BBQ, Picnic, Great place to do cycling.

“Braeside Park offers a variety of educational and recreational opportunities. It protects significant environmental and cultural heritage, from Aboriginal occupation to European settlement. Muralled art walls depict the flora, fauna and cultural heritage of the area. Tree stump art carvings of local celebrities line Cypress Drive. Wander through the interactive community garden.” - I found this on the website. The mini Museum was closed on that day. Opening hours unknown.

Great place to picnic, walk or have a run. Even in May.
Lots of wildlife; saw birds & rabbits. The wetlands was amazing for a city park.
I managed a 7km loop.

Great park and walking track, paths are nice and wide. Awesome to see the animal life there too!

Beautiful park nearby and a perfect place to see some wildlife in the city. One of my favourite places during the lockdown period in 2020 and will definitely visit more often to enjoy walks and fresh air.

Beautiful park with wildlife and plants. Easy access with wheelchair. Children friendly. There are so many rabbits. Walking tracks of park very variable.

It's a very nice place to have a picnic. The nature is really nice. There are a lot of separate ovals making the park very big. I loved it :)
