JJ Holland Park - Kensington (VIC)

Georgia Its a nice little nature spot. But exercise caution I have found several syringes (capped and uncapped) on the grassy areas. I have also encountered a snake recently.

Roni Dattani A dog friendly park (allowed to go off leash) and most of the other dog owners do the right thing to keep the park clean. There is a water fountain and doggie bowl near a kiddie park and plenty of fields where kids play sports . Public toilets next to the tennis courts and plenty of parking. It is a short walk to the river and the there are a few spots you can find emergency doggie bags if needed. Best thing about the park is your dog will want to keep coming back and meet other friendly dogs

Cathy M Great open playground with various adventure options and natural but safe environment for young kids to enjoy freely. Highly recommend it.

Mighty Brown Mouse peter has been operating with his son warwick for the past 38 years and you have to take your hat off on the intimate knowledge he has of the area along the river, which is steeped in history. if you want to slip into the old world, jump on board for a leisurely and informative tour with blackbird river cruise and learn more out the maribyrnong river. it is worth every cent paid.

OpenroadFootprint Tucked inside Melbourne Central like a secret time capsule - because nothing says Melbourne like a 19th-century tower chilling under a giant glass cone! Snapped the shot while trying not to fall over staring straight up... definitely looked like a total tourist. Make sure you head into the museum and learn the history! Worth it!

Santiago Rodríguez This sports park is a well-known spot for those who love to stay active and unwind. It’s the perfect place to practice sports, whether you’re training seriously or just having fun with friends. The open spaces, well-maintained facilities, and relaxing atmosphere make it ideal not only for exercise but also for taking a break from the city’s hustle and bustle. A great destination for both athletes and those looking for a peaceful escape!
