Maitland Park is centrally located to Maitland and has open spaces, picnic facilities, and a kids playground. It also has sporting facilities for soccer / football, netball, hockey, croquet and an outdoor and indoor heated swimming pool. There is also a walking track that goes around the park.

Well maintained gardens with excellent facilities which includes large playgrounds, multiple picnic and bbq areas, mock traffic paths for kids bike etc. All in very close proximity to swimming pool, netball court, cricket and lawn bowl fields. All in all a great place to spend the day with friends and family.

This is the main park in the Maitland area, it is excellent for a walk, exercise or just kicking a ball with the kids. You can get drinks and food from the Pool canteen. The amenities need a massive improvement to bring it up to the standard the Park deserves.

Steamfest. What an amazing event. Have never seen anything like it. From classic & vintage cars to steam trains and tractors there was something for everyone to see.
