Riverside Park - Aberfeldie (VIC)

5 /5 Gopichand Bommineni: Amazing park with great facilities. I havent seen a park like this in Melbourne before. I especially liked the little bookshelf here. As a cricket fan, I had the chance to read about Steve Waugh and his World Cup moments.

5 /5 RagingGlory: I absolutely adore walking this path, and have for years since I was a teenager. One of the highlights of my life was meeting a juvenile fox near Afton St Bridge in winter 2024 — he was chasing after joggers and I thought I’d see if I could distract him from the worried bystanders. To my surprise, he was not only curious but friendly and we had a bit of a play and adventure, checking out palm fronds and coffee cups and checking out the water’s edge. I was already a huge fan of the river and the beautiful sunsets but now walking this path reminds me of the incredible evening I shared with my friend the fox.

5 /5 Lauren Vardy: Fabulous park, the kids spent over 2 hours playing and then I had to tear them away. There are toilets (exeloo, in reasonably good condition), water taps, bench seats, i think covered picnic tables, a second playground with lots of climbing equipment etc, and even a little local library. Great place to spend a sunny afternoon by the river.

5 /5 John Gooey: Great circuit walk around the river, with playground including pirate boat for the kids, gas BBQs and sheltered picnic tables. Clean public toilets. Off-leash dog park area for your fur babies to run free.

5 /5 Likhit Sathavara: Riverside Park is a delightful urban oasis with a lot to offer. Its scenic location along the riverbank, well-maintained green spaces, and diverse recreational activities make it a great destination for both locals and visitors. The parks walking and biking trails are perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, offering picturesque views of the river and lush foliage. Families will appreciate the playgrounds and picnic areas, while fitness enthusiasts can take advantage of the exercise facilities. Overall, Riverside Park is a gem within the city, providing a peaceful escape from the urban hustle and bustle. Whether youre looking to relax, exercise, or enjoy cultural events, this park has something for everyone.
