Pretty good local park. The playground, BMX track, and picnic area attracts a lot of families…read more The football field is used for organized sports most weekends. The best feature of this park is that it connects the fully separated bicycle paths that link the two primary schools, the train station, and the supermarket.

Absolutely over the moon with this playground - which we found by accident while desperate for a…read moretoilet! The place is themed like a moon base. There is a moon crater, a moon worm, rockets, a space ship etc. Boo loved the mini rockets and the music making areas. The place is spotless and very well maintained - and lots to entertain for hours! There is an area at the back that has some information and learning areas about plants. Try pushing the button on the rocket! All in all we had a ball here and wish this was near our house as boo loved it! Check out the pictures to see her smiling face! There is a Liberty swing and toilets and a big car park.

I have been in love with this heavenly place since 2003. I…read morerehabbed from surgery here in 2009, and trained for the Great Ocean Marathon 2010-11. Peaceful, beautiful, tranquil. But great for fam picnics and social thingies. Whether you want to come here to work out, with the amazing walking tracks with low impact asphalt and gravel, or enjoy the breath-taking beauty for a picnic or BBQ... This place will change your life. A true escape from everyday corporate life and post-industrial alienation. It simply makes people happy. People say hi and seem relaxed here. I am lucky enough to live within walking distance to here again (and yes, I moved to my current address FOR this park) - and, for those of us who value more than money, shopping centres and the fake, this place is revolutionary. Enjoy, my similarly minded friends - it will change your lives.

This is a wonderful and quaint park that has so much to offer. In the main area, there is the…read more'jells park tea house', a lovely little café where you can sit and enjoy the surroundings. There is a large wooden playground for kids, plenty of trails and routes to accommodate for the frequent runners and bikers, ovals and barbecues (these run high in demand on sunny weekends). Jells park isn't crowded or overpopulated, but there are enough people around to give it a sense of a community. The park is more of a wetlands/bush land style park compared to a botanical type. I love coming here as it has a vibe of happiness to it, there are always children running around, couples biking and dog walkers. Jells Park is very large and you probably could get lost in it (but if you just follow any path it'll take you back out). If you're in the local area, pop down for a bbq and enjoy.

Jells Park is an extremely popular place to go of a weekend. It offers plenty of natural bushland,…read moreover nine kilometres of tracks and paths, a couple of playgrounds, and heaps of space for you to have picnics or kick the footy with the kids. There's fishing on the side of the lake that is outside of the conservation area, but I hope you like carp! There's the occasional redfin, but they seem like the exception and not the rule, particularly if your experience is anything like mine. The barbecue facilities are pretty good, if sometimes quite busy. In some spots, you'll find free electric barbecues, in others, you'll find wood-burning barbecues. Wood is usually provided, which is a plus. Just remember to take out everything you take in. No rubbish should ever be left there.

We had a ball with the little one here. We have become connoisseurs of playgrounds by accident now…read morewith the little boo. When you approach it looks like a magical wooden wonderland. That is shattered a little when you see the boarded up hole where the slide used to be but other than that it's a pretty well kept playground. It's sponsored by mitre ten and the whole thing is wooden. I was really impressed by the safety of the whole thing and all the hidden nooks and crannies under the built part. There is a cutout section where you can pose like you are driving a big freight liner and a train you can pretend to drive. They do have a Liberty swing here too for children in wheelchairs which is an awesome idea. Highly recommend a visit here if you are in the area with kidlets.

Lately I have been enjoying a little running here and there. I have begun to like this place after…read moregoing there many times. Firstly its this quiet place where you get to meet the Kangaroos, joeys, echidna and some native birds on their own. The cycling, walking, horse riding and a few 4WD's roads (no sure if they are allowed however but you do see the tracks) are all unpaved roads. So just for a precaution take some good shoes that will withstand those kinds of environments. As for the crowds. People tend to be mostly chilling on the side of the lake where there are chairs and some grassland. Some times a few people here and there will also be running or cycling around the tracks but most of the times you are just on your own. There are no sipping water along the miles of those tracks so make sure you either drink enough water that will last you for at least an hour or take some water with yourself. Just don't give up. You'll finish those lines and at the end the feelings are just great.
