ARMIDALE BICENTENNIAL ARBORETUM

Public BBQ

A large open parkland on the edge of Armidale, roughly a twenty-minute walk from town. There is plenty of room for outdoor games, a playground that suits younger children, and an easy walking loop that crosses a boardwalk over a water feature. Press the button on the boardwalk and the waterfall runs harder, which is always a hit with kids. Paths are flat and accessible for wheelchairs, and there are dump-point and water-fill facilities handy for anyone travelling in an RV. Expectations are worth managing though: despite the name, the tree and exotic plant collection is thin and parts of the grounds look tired. It works better as a stop for a picnic or a walk with the dog than as a destination in its own right. No cafe on site.
