AW PETERSON RESERVE

Public BBQ

This expansive parkland catches visitors by surprise with its generous proportions and unexpected recreational offerings. The reserve's standout feature remains its half-pipe, a rare find in suburban Melbourne that draws skaters and BMX riders from across the peninsula. The vast open spaces provide ample room for families to spread out, with children gravitating naturally toward the skating facility while parents appreciate the breathing room this sizeable green space affords. The park's scale becomes immediately apparent upon arrival - there's a sense of freedom here that smaller neighbourhood reserves simply cannot match. While amenities remain basic, the reserve's primary appeal lies in its generous dimensions and that distinctive half-pipe, making it a worthwhile destination for active families seeking something beyond the typical playground experience.
