Lions Park - West Ryde (NSW)

5 /5 VITAHOUSE HEALTH: We always come to the park. The management is fantastic! We love the playground. People around us in the park, are so friendly. The experience is enjoyable

4 /5 Paul Osores Schlack: Great Park is a hidden gem with sprawling grassy fields perfect for a picnic, sand pits where kids can unleash their inner archaeologists, fun slides, convenient toilets, swings that let you soar, a half-court for basketball showdowns, and even a mini bike track for the little racers. But alas, time has taken its toll—this once vibrant haven is now in dire need of some TLC to bring it back to its former glory.

5 /5 Raymond Nersessian: We held my son’s birthday here, lovely park with extensive playground, scooter paths and plenty of shade cover. Amenities like toilets and water bubblers were close by and clean.

5 /5 Terry Hur: Its a nice small park with plenty of playground for kids and a full set of facilities for having a bbq. There is a pair of bbq grills, taps, bubbler, and toilets. It even has a half court basketball hoop which is rather rare in Sydney. Parking is accessible from Shaftsbury Road.

5 /5 Mark Sze: Lions Park is a great park for kids - babies up to 10 years old (although better up to about 7-8). The park has an oval scooter track with a slight incline and decline as well as poles to go through and a play gas station. Within the track is a decent patch of grass for kicking a ball around or a picnic. A large sandpit provides a lot of entertainment with a fun set of equipment that transports sand from one end to the other through various stations, as well as a sand digger. Its also well shaded. A climbing net, swings, and a couple of small slides complete the play area. A small half basketball half court for older kids is available and in good condition. Facilities include drinking water, two barbecue hot plates, tables and chairs, and bathrooms (no change table). Parking is free and is sufficient for this smaller park. Recommended for young families.
