What people say
A good sized playground, plenty of parking and lots of room to kick a ball about. I accessed this reserve from M7 cycleway and departed in very quiet streets through to Doonside Station. Pleasantly green grass at a very dry time of year.
Quite a nice place if you go there alone. I went for zone athletics and can never understand why they didn’t let us go to Blacktown International Sportspark just down the road… grass track, pretty bad jump pits, etc…
Well hidden place like with a modest playground not far from the Blacktown International Sport Park.
