lyra playground and newpark reserve pump track, beveridge

Mamma has found a new playground in Beveridge that's sure to be a hit with the whole family! Lyra Playground and Newpark Pump Track is a great spot for an action-packed day outdoors, with an epic pump track where little riders can zoom around on bikes and scooters, tackling all the fun ups and downs. There's also plenty of open lawn for running around, kicking a ball or simply letting the kids burn off some energy.

The playground itself has plenty to keep little adventurers busy, with colourful climbing equipment, swings and a big twisty slide that is sure to be a favourite. There’s also a smaller slide for younger kiddos, making it a great spot for different ages to enjoy. And when the kids need a break from all the climbing and sliding, there's a basketball half-court ready for a game of hoops.

Mamma also loves how much space there is here for families to spread out, with shaded seats and tables for the grown-ups to relax while the kids play. There's plenty of street parking nearby too, making it an easy spot to visit.

Whether your little ones are into bikes, scooters, climbing, slides or simply having plenty of room to run wild, Lyra Playground and Newpark Pump Track is definitely one to add to your Northside playground list.
