One
of the best adventure playgrounds in Bendigo can be found
on the Napier St side of Lake Weeroona. Built with children's
safety in mind, this brand new wonderland will keep the little
ones amused for hours with slides, ladders and swings to wear
themselves out on. Surrounded by a safety fence to prevent children
wandering onto roads or into the water, you can sit and relax
in the shade while your children explore a colourful world built
just for them.

edge with a great coffee while the kids explore the playground.
