Area: North Ajax
Age Range: infant and up
Parking: some street parking on Bellinger Drive and off of the nearby side streets
weekends: Vimy Ridge public school parking lot off of Telford Street
Ground Cover: mulch
Main Equipment:
Accessibility Features: none
Facilities/Other:
Surrounding Park Area: A soccer field with a bit of surrounding green space and some smaller trees
Seating: 3 park benches facing each other under a shaded pavilion, 1 park bench facing the larger play structure, 1 picnic table hiding in the middle of the trees
Shade: none over the playground itself, but some under the shade pavilion, and some in the surrounding trees
Overall assessment: We like parks that have a lot of climbing apparatus and this one delivered for our kindergartner. The log roller though posed a challenge as her arms aren't quite long enough to grasp both sides, and going it solo was a bit too scary (she almost face planted). Circular monkey bars always look so fun to me, but not when I am still helping the kiddo reach them. This park also has a bike rack which is convenient for older kids using the field.
