Fadden Pines Playground

I LOVED THE PLAYGROUND in the middle of the pine forest, it had a super fun section that I think was built for older kids/adults.
Also a great spot to walk through the pretty trees, you feel like you're in a different place!

Spent a few hours here with my friends and it was very fun. The weather did make areas of the park a muddy moat, but I can see how in summer it would have superb hills for rolling down or lounging on.
10/10 for hide & seek in any weather

Environmental-friendly playground in Pine Forrest. Suitable for family, kids and picnic in the nature. Also good for someone who want to enjoy walking in the nature. You can easily wander in the pine forrest while listening to bird and insect singing. Highly recommended for those who nature lovers.

Playground with a nice variety and some great spaces to explore by foot or bike right next door throughout all the pines. Perfect for a family putting or get together with friends.

Slide on the younger playground shows signs of how wonderfully loved and used it is by many children and the shade cloth makes it a nice shady place on hot summer days.

Great place to spend a sunny day. Lots of space to hang out, nice cool grass and lots of shade from on the pines. Bbq and toilet facilities are a bonus and enough equipment to keep most ages occupied.

We had a friends and family get together. The park was great. There was shade available. Room for kids and pets to run and play - not to forget the playground equipment.
When the wind blows, hold onto your things and the public BBQ took an hour to cook meat.

This a lovely park with playgrounds for all ages plenty of space to play cricket or kick a ball around lots of tables and BBQ

Popped into Fadden Pines Playground recently and it is fair to say that this park is in need of a facelift. It has been untouched for over 10 years and it's unkempt terrain is indicative of the general attitude towards parks it appears. Such an expanse of space with loads of potential and a serious lack of foresight of the municipal council to create a space that brings its community together. Such a shame really!

Great place for birthdays parties, picnics and gatherings. Kids play areas, a skate park and wide space for the young at heart to play and roam.

This is my favourite place, pine forest surrounded by suburbs so you don't feel isolated. Lots of BBQ's scattered around. But I don't recommend staying after dark, there's often suspicious activity in the parking lot sometimes moving into the park.

This is a great playground for the kids. There are swings and other stuff. A small skate bowl. Bbq and picnic tables. Toilets too. Bbqs are always dirty. So bring some stuff to clean them and you will enjoy this place.

Kids love going and playing in amongst the trees. There are a number of BBQ to cook lunch. Heaps of space to run around. Playground could do with a bit of an upgrade.

Beautiful birds to see if you walk into the pine Forrest. Especially Yellow-tailed black cockatoo.

Good for kids age 1 to teens, multiple types of play equipment, small skate park, small MTB track, grassed areas, BBQs, picnic tables, public toilets, some rocky areas also good for play. On-leash dog friendly.

Excellent plenty of space to run jump climb & gave a picnic or BBQ. Good for littlies & 10 year olds

Bbq pit yes. Toilets yes, although it is quite a way off. Small skate park area. Plenty of space to run about

Fabulous BBQ, Picnic area and great play ground for kids plenty of grass area for kids to run around.

A lovely open space playground and picnic area to the public. Surrounded by pine trees, very good for families spend time at weekend.
