1 / 2Khandallah Park Childrens Playground
📍 Khandallah, Wellington
Small but well-maintained playground featuring colorful slides and flying fox, perfectly located as a base for Mt. Kaukau hiking adventures with the family.
The multi-coloured slide and flying fox are great. Swings, including a "secret" set (according to my granddaughter) further up the valley are as you would expect. The climbing boxes and the smaller slide/climbing combo are a bit weird and both appear to have bits missing - and what on earth is the small "cradle" underneath the platform?
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with children who enjoy outdoor climbing and sliding equipment, particularly those planning to combine playground time with Mt. Kaukau hiking. The playground works well as a meeting point for families where some members hike while others stay with younger children. However, expect a smaller play area with limited variety compared to larger playgrounds.

“Lovely playground in Khandallah area, right by the Khandallah summer pool. It is also located near one of the entrance of the Northern walk to go up to Mt. Kaukau summit. It’s clean and well maintained. When we hike up to Mt.Kaukau summit, the kids who don’t hike wait and play in this area.”

“The kids park has a seating area for the adults and pool next to it. The park itself has swings,a small side, seesaw, and a big slide. A flying fox. That's pretty much it. The play ground is not that big of dynamic. But the walks around it are great”

“The playground was great. At the start of the walk to the viewing platform the trail was incredibly Muddy and slippery. Wonderful view up there and lots of native birds to be seen. I enjoyed watching the Tui's playing in the trees.”
