Princes Park Playground in Maryborough is located alongside the picturesque
Lake Victoria with its ducks, swans, great variety of trees, and walking track.
The playground features a lot of great play equipment including a carousel, suspended-seat flying fox, spiral slide, monkey bars, swings and much more.
There are two play areas. One has the main playground structure and a carousel, the other has the flying fox, monkey bars and a swing set.
There are two undercover picnic areas with free electric barbecues.
The first picnic area lies alongside the flying fox and has a new free electric barbecue and a picnic table. The toilet block is near this barbecue area.
The other picnic area is well equipped with two free electric barbecues set in a large brick bench, two picnic tables plus extra seating around the edges.
There are rubbish bins and water taps available.
A large grassy field lies beside the playground and barbecue areas.
Lake Victoria is a great place to go for a leisurely stroll or feed the ducks and swans. Please note that feeding ducks bread is detrimental to their health, try some of these more appropriate alternatives:
- Corn (canned, frozen or fresh)
- Duck pellets (sold online and at pet stores)
- Lettuce, other greens (torn into small pieces)
- Frozen peas (defrosted)
- Oats (rolled or instant)
- Seeds (including birdseed or other varieties)
