Area: Ajax North

Age Range: 5 to 12 years

Installed: 2013

Parking:  plenty of parking in the adjacent Audley Recreation Centre lot off of Audley Rd and Williamson Dr

Ground Cover: mulch

Main Equipment:
  • 2 saucer swings
  • 2 pedal racers
  • 2 zip lines
  • 1 slide
  • 1 teeter rocker
  • 1 body roller
  • 1 rope web
  • 1 four seat spinner
  • 1 Dinosaur Dig

Accessibility Features: zip line bucket seat, ramp, body roller, saucer swings, four seat spinner, arm pedal racer, music stations

Facilities/Other:
  • Splash Pad
  • 1 basketball court
  • 1 tennis court
  • Audley Sportsplex playground
  • Audley Recreation Centre skatepark

Surrounding Park Area: located on the south side of the Audley Recreation Centre (not visible from the parking lot off of Audley Rd & Williamson Dr) and adjacent to a Splash Pad; there is also the Audley Sportsplex playground on the north side of the Recreation Centre

Seating: many long concrete benches surrounding the playground and beside the Splash Pad (under a canopy)

Shade: no shade on the playground, some shade under a canopy beside the Splash Pad

Overall assessment: One of the best Accessible playgrounds in Durham!  A challenging all inclusive play area with many different pieces of equipment to interact with including a special climbing rock and four seat spinner.  This is definitely a playground for the older kids (although our three year old loved it) as little ones would find it difficult climbing the step ladder to reach the slide (but they can always help out at the Dinosaur Dig!).
This park was chosen as one of Canada's 150 coolest playgrounds!
