visit here very regularly as it has an abundance of nature and plants which are very maintained and always look full of life. Has a very pleasant walking path around the lake which has plenty of ducks and other water birds as well as heaps of what I believe are carp fish of big sizes popping their heads up to view. There are also two playgrounds on opposite ends of the park and plenty of fresh water taps at many locations. It also has a big stone monument to commemorate heros with different plaques on each side. Great big areas of lovely green grass for picnic either in the open or under shade. The bowls club there is also very upkept and frequently hired out for events on weekends seems to always be people in the park.
Playground
two quite decent sized playgrounds on either end of park with lake in between them each with a different lay out for the children. the one at the front of the park has a nice Cafe next to it and public restroom near by.
Restrooms
one public toilet with two rooms next to front playground park.
Dog-friendliness
lots of people walk their dogs and cats hah around the lake and it has plenty of fresh water taps accessible for hydration around the park for animals!
Picnic area
there are double sided seating benches or an abundance of open fresh grass areas in or out of shade to picnic at and lovely fresh water lake with lots of life either with fish or different water birds to enjoy viewing.

  • Milisha Nambiar

Huge park and extremely gorgeous. There's a lake in the middle and huge trees all over to have a small picnic under. The park has benches for those who just want to sit and admire without wanting to picnic. There's also walking paths for joggers. For kids there is a jungle gym to go crazy in. There's a public toilet on the Mount Alexander Road side that is automated. You can buy coffees from the cafe situation adjacent to the bowls club. Gets a bit crowded on a sunny day. So come early if you want to find a good spot and also a parking spot nearby.

  • Tony Peck

A wonderful, extensive park in the heart of Moonee Ponds. We had a picnic near the cafe. Delightful surrounds, lots of kids having a ball. We were with a toddler so this suited us fine. Lots of places to go if you want quiet and restful. Lots of open lawns, formal gardens and walking paths. Coffee from the cafe was acceptable. The lake is lovely and the park is highly recommended. Moonee Ponds shopping strip is nearby with supermarkets, cafes etc.

  • David Tribe

Good place to walk the dogs. Charming nooks to hide or pic-nic in (eg sunken garden). Has clean modern public toilets, water fountains for people and dogs. a cafe, children's playgrounds and sandpits. wide variety of trees and flowers, including Begonia, Illawarra flame tree, ferns, Native pines. A black swan, corellas, ibis, lorikeets, ravens, ducks, night heron, moorhens and cormorants. The vibe changes with the seasons and time of day.

  • Richard T.Whybrow

Beautifully maintained large family friendly park. Plenty to see and do with play equipment for kids and parking available on all sides. A big lake is at the centre of the park which might attack inquiring children, so be careful with the little ones. Wifi is being installed for public use. There is a bowling club, cafe, and swimming pool included in the park. ANZAC memorials are featured in the park and yearly services are held here.

  • Jimmy K

Awesome park! Lots of wildlife, a cafe, toilets, bins, rotary wishing well, children's play equipment, public swimming pools & a lawn bowls club. You will usually find that there's plenty of friendly people exercising & having picnics. I always feel positive vibes here & recommend this park wether it's for exercise, reading a book (plenty of shaded areas just watch those sprinklers), or other activities like practicing mindfulness.

  • Hadia Azed

This is a beautiful well maintained park. My bub and I saw lots of birds and ducks. And we absolutely enjoyed our walk in the park. There's a small playground for kids to enjoy on swings and seesaw. There's a cafe as well. Too bad it was closed by the time I went there. I'll go again some other day to try out their coffee.
Playground
Beautiful playground for kids of all ages to play. My bub had a great time here.

  • George

Beautiful park with picturesque lake and flora, ducks, ibis...Nice walk around the park with plenty of benches to sit and enjoy the view. There is also a cafe and kids' playground with swings, slides etc. A few water fountains around the park if you forget to bring a water bottle. Plenty of street parking. Wheelchair accessible, dog friendly(on leash) A great little oasis in the heart of Moonee Ponds.

  • shadow cadence

Stunning park with a huge lake populated with waterfowl, mixture of open grassy areas, shady areas under massive oak trees, and densely planted forest areas. Almost the entire park is wheelchair accessible, including the small café (part of the eating area is raised up a step, but there is a ramp onto it on one side). Beautiful historic items scattered about.

  • Chaminda Senanayake

Beautiful place to walk and enjoy that is not too big. Toilets available on Mt. Alexander Road side and public pool on Pascoe Vale Road side. Need more fresh water in the lake for aquatic life to thrive as signs of green algae in the summer. There is a cozy coffee shop too to relax and enjoy a nice cuppa. Great for all walks of life for nice quick stroll.

  • Jacinta G

Beautiful park. During covid I have walked around here more often than normal. It is so nice to see everyone sitting on the grass with their friends. It would be nice if they did fitness classes or things like that for the community here to make more use of the space. I especially when the ducks are around they are so cute.

  • Peter Dal-Ben

We used it as a catch up location. We met at the café and ordered coffees and food. The chips were popular. There were lots of seats to accommodate the 7 of us. There are playgrounds for young ones, one on each side of the lake. The gardens are well maintained and it's a magic spot to walk around and chill out.

  • Toby H

Nice cafe in a classic Melbourne park. Swell pond, playground is safe without being tedious to walk around with a curious three year old. Pigeons will quickly pounce on any food left out but there’s ducks and other wildlife on and around the pond. Overall if you like parks you will probably like this.

  • Jobish Thomas

Awesome place to unwind and good place for kids with play area and lake. You can spot a lot of birds including ducks and pelicans etc around the lake. The walk trail around the lake is very nice and the best to unwind. It’s pretty close to Moonee Ponds shopping centre and St. Monica Catholic Church.

  • M C

I love this park!!! It’s big enough and has lots of wildlife to enjoy! Spotted 2 playgrounds and a gorgeous cottage cafe! Swimming pool is also located within the park. Carp fish were huge!! I can be here all day . It’s so peaceful and has enough shade for hot weather. I will definitely be back!

  • Sin Ying Ling

A totally relax little park with all the ducks and birds, great for couples or family too go to. so Great for a short walk if you live next to Moonee ponds or can do a picnic when you have a day off. Anyway did enjoy it and will be back soon and maybe we'll check out that house cafe next. …

  • Sarah Davies

Great park, lots of space for families to enjoy and you almost forget that you are in an inner city suburb. With the sound of the birds and the sound of the breeze through the magnificent trees will surely impress. Great to get out to your picnics with COVID restrictions easing!

  • Adele Goh

Enjoying my morning walks here, beautiful park, lots of greens, colorful flowers, a pond where all the duckie can be seen enjoying their time, 2 playground for family with kids, cafe, public toilet, clean park, well maintained by the people from Moonee Valley City Council.

  • Thomas Liontis

It's a very nice park, has a lot of tree coverage, numerous footpaths and a pretty lake that attracts a lot of ducks and other bird life. It's well maintained and is a very family oriented park, also not too bad of a spot take you dog for a walk in as well.

  • Anish Kumar Giri

Its a nice neighbourhood weekend spot for a family with kids. There is also a cafe in the park and I loved thier cappacino ( must try). The is a pond with ducks offering a mesmerising getaway spot to sit and enjoy the nature. Ample Parking near the park.

  • Antonio Iodice

Have known queens park all my life. Mum and dad used to take us there as s child. Have very fond childhood memories of the playground and the ducks and swans. Climbing the trees and the cannons. Great to walk around and to take my kids to play.

  • Lym

I looked up and down and left and right and heck, I looked straight ahead and behind! But she was nowhere to be seen. False advertising, no Queen present. Do not take the family here for a cheeky Queen sighting, you will be let down.

  • John McKenzie

Great park to walk your dog, but make sure you clean up after your dog, the playground is a good size for all ages and the park is always alive with people relaxing and enjoying the lovely gardens and trees and the toilets are clean

  • David Van Der Hoeven

Love this place. A great park with two great playgrounds, plenty of space and a track right around it. The birdlife don't hassle you, they exist in their own world. The cafe is fantastic and there's sufficient free parking around.

One of the more lovely parks in the Northern suburbs. Spacious and historic. There is something for everyone...including kids, fitness fanatics, and botanists. Many fine species of trees. Dog friendly (leashed preferred).

A great place for a quick relaxing stroll or a leisurely picnic with friends and family. A walk around the pond refreshes you with the trees and birds in the area. A must visit place to relax if you're in the area

Stopped here to go to the toilet. Park looks great and toilet fine but finding a carpark mid morning was a pain.
