Governor Phillip Park — Attraction in Sydney

Fantastic place to spend a day or just an afternoon. We were lucky to get gorgeous views of the sun over the Hawkesbury river just before sunset. Nice walking path parallel to river, ample grass area to set up picnic next to the river.

For children: Big, gated, clean play equipment area (with swings, slides, flying foxes). There’s also water play area in summer.

Unisex Toilets are next to the children play area. These are also wheelchair accessible.

Picnic tables and some shaded picnic tables on either side of the children play area.

Parking available & ample street parking.

All in all one can spend just half hour watching the views offered by this place & get refreshed or spend the whole day, which will be totally worth it.

This picnic area would not hold a large number, but it is still a good place to come to with your kids. There is also a nice Riverside walk which is wheelchair accessible. This is an excellent product of government funding that will serve many now and...

Great park. Lots for kids to see and explore. Has in-ground trampolines, mirrors, tunnels, a slide, animal statues to find, a birds nest swing, seating for parents, a platform that spins (no idea what they are called), and a water park that’s activated by a button (all parents try and avoid drawing attention to it during winter, but once the Button is pressed, the secret is out! Recommend bringing spare clothes and a towel). There’s also barbecue facilities nearby. The lark is fenced, which is food because it’s right next to the river. The river itself is beautiful, worth a walk before leaving. I don’t recall seeing any bathroom facilities but I also wasn’t...
