Arthur Street Playground
📍 Dunedin, Otago South
A well-equipped Dunedin playground on a hillside with a wide slide, flying fox, see-saw, and two swing sets including toddler swings. Flower gardens add colour, and the uphill walk gives the visit a sense of adventure.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
A rewarding community playground for families prepared for the uphill approach. The wide slide draws kids back repeatedly, and the toddler swings mean younger siblings are catered for too. Bring snacks and plan a toilet stop beforehand - facilities are not available on site.

Overview
Arthur Street Playground sits in central Dunedin at 30 Arthur Street, reached by a short uphill walk that rewards families with varied equipment and pleasant surrounds. The wide slide is a clear hit with children, and the swing sets include a baby and toddler option. A see-saw and flying fox (check current status before visiting) round out the equipment. Nice flowering gardens add colour through the grounds. Free entry, outdoor, pram access. No public toilets on site.
