Twickenham Avenue Reserve: a shelter next to the bike track
- Covered shelter
- Playground
Twickenham Avenue Reserve has a large shelter and a picnic setting beside a junior learn-to-ride bike track. The track is built with mock road features, so young riders practise the rules as they pedal. A children's playground sits beside the track, and a scooter track runs through the reserve. The reserve has no public toilets, and shade is limited, so it's best to visit outside midday in summer.

How we picked
Shelters, toilets and playgrounds carry most of the weight, as no park here lists a BBQ. Picnic tables and size count too, along with how much shade a park gives and whether the picnic spot is close to the playground. Unknown details show as dashes, so a gap means we lack the detail, not that the feature is missing, so check the park itself before you plan around one.
