WICKHAM PARK

Public BBQ

Tucked away near Artarmon Station, Wickham Park feels like a well-kept secret that locals seem determined to keep quiet. This compact neighbourhood gem offers exactly what harried parents need: a peaceful retreat where children can burn energy without the usual crowds. The centrepiece sandpit proves endlessly fascinating to young visitors, while the twin swings,one designed for toddlers,provide simple pleasures. An electric barbecue hotplate makes this spot perfect for impromptu family barbecues, though you'll want to pack your own drinks as the water bubbler has seen better days. What strikes you most is the tranquil atmosphere. Plenty of benches are strategically positioned for supervising parents, creating intimate pockets throughout the space. The lack of elaborate play equipment might disappoint some, but there's something refreshingly honest about this no-frills approach to recreation.
