Mamma thinks you’d be hard-pressed finding a more tranquil, fun and spacious spot for a play with the kids and dog! A.H. Capp Reserve has everything you need for a gathering with friends, with picnic tables, shade and a playground with elements suited to both younger and older kids. On the larger structure there’s a rock climbing wall and a large slide and on the smaller there is a chain bridge, smaller slide and noughts and crosses. There’s also a little merri-go-round and swings (including a basket swing). Add to this a basketball court, leash-less dog oval and exercise equipment - there is something for everyone here!
The best part is that it’s set along the beautiful Merri Creek Trail, making it just such a pretty and peaceful spot. There’s a relaxed and friendly dog scene after 5pm on the oval, a great way to see out the end of the day.
Mamma's special mention: Grab a coffee & pastry from Joe’s Market Garden on your way (open Saturdays and every day of lockdown 9am-1pm).
