Lovely place for the kids to play. There is a younger kid section and an older kid one. There is also a big sand play area so bring your sand toys. The wifi connection is great and the toilets are always clean. Staff is helpful and polite.

Kids and I loved the walk. The trails are wide and well-kept. The kids played at the park for a long time after we finished the trail. We really had a wonderful time.

Lovely local park. The river is beautiful and the nature is gorgeous here. Negative points: parents letting their children run around and scream and some people are trying to enjoy the peace and nature and maybe listen to a few birds. Children ruined that very quickly. Also it’s not possible to bike at 10km an hour maximum. Most people run or job that fast
