About Slidey Park
Hillside Slides and Toddler Castle Slide at Slidey Park
Slidey Park has three slides built into a hillside that children enjoy climbing. A fourth, smaller slide is set on the side of a toddler castle made by Lappset, which is colourful and compact. The castle has stairs leading up to a small platform, and two doorways underneath let children use it as a play house. The castle slide is described as suitable for toddlers, so younger children have a slide scaled to their size, while the three hillside slides make up the main sliding area of the park.
Playground Equipment at Slidey Park
Slidey Park has a merry-go-round with little horses and a climbing net on the far side of the hill. The park also has an impressive climbing structure and a swing set. The swing set is metallic and includes a bird's nest seat alongside two regular seats, all supplied by Lark Industries and manufactured by Lappset. The equipment is built from steel and timber, and the park's play equipment was completed in 2019.
Picnic Seating and Shade at Slidey Park
Slidey Park has plenty of tables and chairs, with some placed in shade and others in the open. A shelter with seating is also available at Slidey Park, giving families a covered spot for snacks or lunch. Shade in the play areas is limited until the trees mature, so the shaded tables are the cooler choice on hot days, particularly in summer.
