It would take a weekend wanderer an entire year to explore the Adelaide Park Lands. Immerse yourself in the more than 40 parks, squares and gardens.
City squares & formal gardens
From the refined Himeji Gardens to the wild beauty of Moreton Bay Figs, the city’s formal gardens and squares are both functional and beautiful. Visitors will appreciate the elegance of the gardens and memorials across the city.
East Park Lands
Options abound for people of all ages to play in the East Park Lands. Wander with friends, family or Fido – take advantage of the exercise facilities in the open air or stop for a coffee or bite to eat.
North Park Lands
Victorian style manicured gardens set amongst the historic buildings provide a glimpse into the past. Revegetation projects preserve the original landscape in other areas close by; natural bushland and biodiversity are a key priority.
Riverbank Park Lands
If you only have 24 hours in the City of Adelaide, there’s a good chance you’ll end up along the stunning Riverbank.
South Park Lands
Whether you’re seeking adrenalin or serenity, there is an option for you in the South Park Lands. Explore the playspaces, ride the BMX track suitable for all abilities or try the tree climb.
West Park Lands
Take a step back to the earliest days in Adelaide and explore West Terrace Cemetery and Adelaide Gaol, both steeped in history.
Gather the family and prepare for adventure! Pack your compass, pull on your thinking caps and put away the screens because the city’s playspaces are calling you to explore.
Cycling & walking trails
The Adelaide Park Lands can be explored by following winding paths and trails through lush parks and activity hubs.
Park Lands BBQs and eats
Throw a snag on the barbie or treat yourself to a lazy lunch or dinner with friends in a picture perfect setting.
